Full panchang for Wed 29 Sep in ŞefaatlıPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Wed 29 Sep in Şefaatlı?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Wed 29 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 16:09. Pratipada: 16:09 to 15:32 Wed.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 15:32; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 16:09 Tue to 15:32.
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 16:09 on Tue 28 Sep to 15:32 on Wed 29 Sep, so it touches only Wednesday’s aparahna (13:41–16:04). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
