Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Mon 28 Sep in Atliaca?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Mon 28 Sep: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 21:50.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 14:40–17:04. Pratipada: 21:50 Sun to 18:04.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). 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 21:50 on Sun 27 Sep to 18:04 on Mon 28 Sep, so only Monday’s aparahna (14:40–17:04) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
