Why is Raksha Bandhan on Wed 17 Aug or Thu 18 Aug in Ipameri?
Smarta · Vaishnava · Raksha Bandhan is on Wed 17 Aug, after bhadra ends at 23:16.
Raksha Bandhan muhurat: the time after bhadra, at 23:16.
Purnima holds all of aparahna, 13:26–15:44. Purnima: 10:03 to 12:27 Thu.
Purnima ended at 12:27; aparahna is Pratipada. Purnima: 10:03 Wed to 12:27.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The rakhi is tied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 10:03 on Wed 17 Aug to 12:27 on Thu 18 Aug, so only Wednesday’s aparahna (13:26–15:44) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 23:16, and the Dharmasindhu keeps the rite out of bhadra: it is done from 23:16.
Purnima lasts past the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise on Thu 18 Aug (until 08:48), so the Dharmasindhu keeps the rite in that day’s aparahna: Thu 18 Aug.
