Full panchang for Mon 3 Sep in PāthardiPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Mon 3 Sep in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Mon 3 Sep: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 13:43–16:12. Pratipada: 03:13 to 05:30 Tue.
Pratipada ended at 05:30; aparahna is Dwitiya.
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 03:13 on Mon 3 Sep to 05:30 on Tue 4 Sep, so only Monday’s aparahna (13:43–16:12) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
