Full panchang for Wed 1 Mar in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Wed 1 Mar in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Wed 1 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 12:28 Wed.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:01 Thu–00:48 Thu. Chaturdashi: 12:28 to 11:55 Thu.
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 12:28 on Wed 1 Mar to 11:55 on Thu 2 Mar, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (00:01 Thu–00:48 Thu) falls within it.
