Full panchang for Mon 7 Sep in PāthardiPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Mon 7 Sep in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Mon 7 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 16:51. Pratipada: 16:51 to 13:44 Mon.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 13:44; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 16:51 Sun to 13:44.
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 16:51 on Sun 6 Sep to 13:44 on Mon 7 Sep, so it touches only Monday’s aparahna (13:41–16:10). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
