Full panchang for Fri 11 Sep in HetaudaPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Fri 11 Sep in Hetauda?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Fri 11 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 18:04.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 14:20; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 18:04 Thu to 14:20.
One row per day, on one clock (NPT). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 18:04 on Thu 10 Sep to 14:20 on Fri 11 Sep, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (13:12–15:41). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
