Full panchang for Sat 6 Mar in ChahārbāghMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 6 Mar in Chahārbāgh?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 6 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 10:04 Sat.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:52–00:42 Sun. Chaturdashi: 10:04 to 11:46 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 10:04 on Sat 6 Mar to 11:46 on Sun 7 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:52–00:42 Sun) falls within it.
