Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Thu 1 Oct in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Thu 1 Oct: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 02:30 Thu.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 13:30–15:54. Pratipada: 02:30 to 22:41.
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 02:30 on Thu 1 Oct to 22:41 on Thu 1 Oct, so only Thursday’s aparahna (13:30–15:54) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
