Full panchang for Sun 2 Sep in PāthardiPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Sun 2 Sep in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Sun 2 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 17:58. Pratipada: 17:58 to 14:04 Sun.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 14:04; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 17:58 Sat to 14:04.
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 17:58 on Sat 1 Sep to 14:04 on Sun 2 Sep, so it touches only Sunday’s aparahna (13:43–16:13). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
