Full panchang for Sat 12 Mar in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 12 Mar in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 12 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 04:00 Sat.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:58–00:45 Sun. Chaturdashi: 04:00 to 01:00 Sun.
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 04:00 on Sat 12 Mar to 01:00 on Sun 13 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:58–00:45 Sun) falls within it.
