Full panchang for Mon 20 Oct in New DelhiNarak Chaturdashi Abhyanga snan muhurat: what time?
Why is Narak Chaturdashi on Mon 20 Oct in New Delhi?
Narak Chaturdashi is on Mon 20 Oct: Chaturdashi holds all of arunodaya that morning, and no other.
Arunodaya is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 13:52.
Chaturdashi holds all of arunodaya, 04:49–06:25. Chaturdashi: 13:52 Sun to 15:45.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
The abhyanga bath is taken in arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. Chaturdashi runs from 13:52 on Sun 19 Oct to 15:45 on Mon 20 Oct, so only Monday’s arunodaya (04:49–06:25) falls within it. No text giving Narak Chaturdashi’s time was found; arunodaya is Tithika’s convention.
