Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Mon 3 Sep in Polatlı?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Mon 3 Sep: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 00:43 Mon.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 14:08–16:44. Pratipada: 00:43 to 03:00 Tue.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). 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 00:43 on Mon 3 Sep to 03:00 on Tue 4 Sep, so only Monday’s aparahna (14:08–16:44) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
