Full panchang for Thu 7 Sep in OleanPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Thu 7 Sep in Olean?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Thu 7 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Purnima until 14:42, inside aparahna; then Pratipada. Pratipada: 14:42 to 10:56 Fri.
Pratipada ended at 10:56; aparahna is Dwitiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). 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 14:42 on Thu 7 Sep to 10:56 on Fri 8 Sep, so it touches only Thursday’s aparahna (14:28–17:02). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
