Full panchang for Mon 11 Mar in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Mon 11 Mar in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Mon 11 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:59–00:46 Tue. Chaturdashi: 18:07 to 20:33 Tue.
Chaturdashi ended at 20:33; nishitha is Amavasya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 18:07 on Mon 11 Mar to 20:33 on Tue 12 Mar, so only Monday night’s nishitha (23:59–00:46 Tue) falls within it.
