Vaishnava · Wednesday 12 April
Why is Rama Navami on Tue 11 Apr or Wed 12 Apr in Sevan?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Tue 11 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:40–13:18. Navami: 06:47 to 09:00 Wed.
Navami ended at 09:00; madhyahna is Dashami. Navami: 06:47 Tue to 09:00.
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 06:47 on Tue 11 Apr to 09:00 on Wed 12 Apr, so only Tuesday’s madhyahna (10:40–13:18) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Wed 12 Apr, at 05:25. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
