Why is Rama Navami on Thu 15 Apr?
In New Delhi
Rama Navami is on Thu 15 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna that day, and no other.
Madhyahna is Ashtami; Navami begins at 15:24. Navami: 15:24 to 13:21 Thu.
Navami holds madhyahna only until 13:21; then Dashami. Navami: 15:24 Wed to 13:21.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Madhyahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rama’s birth is celebrated at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day. Navami runs from 15:24 on Wed 14 Apr to 13:21 on Thu 15 Apr, so it touches only Thursday’s madhyahna (11:04–13:38). Every reading takes that day.
The rule
Chaitra Shukla Navami
Rama’s birth is celebrated at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day.
- Smarta
- the day whose madhyahna Navami holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- a Navami that Ashtami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
Each city’s date and times are worked out at its own sunrise and sunset; each city’s page draws the reason.
