Full panchang for Mon 15 Sep in PāthardiPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Mon 15 Sep in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Mon 15 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Purnima until 14:43, inside aparahna; then Pratipada. Pratipada: 14:43 to 13:13 Tue.
Pratipada ended at 13:13; aparahna is Dwitiya. Pratipada: 14:43 Mon to 13:13.
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 14:43 on Mon 15 Sep to 13:13 on Tue 16 Sep, so it touches only Monday’s aparahna (13:37–16:04). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
