Full panchang for Thu 30 Sep in PāthardiPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Thu 30 Sep in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Thu 30 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 18:35.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 14:40; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 18:35 Wed to 14:40.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 18:35 on Wed 29 Sep to 14:40 on Thu 30 Sep, so it touches only Thursday’s aparahna (13:31–15:55). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
