Smarta · Saturday 7 April
Vaishnava · Sunday 8 April
Why is Rama Navami on Sat 7 Apr or Sun 8 Apr in Davinópolis?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Sat 7 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:25–13:49. Navami: 07:03 to 08:53 Sun.
Navami ended at 08:53; madhyahna is Dashami.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). 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 07:03 on Sat 7 Apr to 08:53 on Sun 8 Apr, so only Saturday’s madhyahna (11:25–13:49) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Sun 8 Apr, at 06:36. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
