When is Rama Navami 1976 in Pāthardi?
Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Fri 9 Apr in Pāthardi?
By the Dharmasindhu, Rama Navami is on Fri 9 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna on both days and it takes the later.
Ashtami until 12:20, inside madhyahna; then Navami. Navami: 12:20 to 11:23 Fri.
Navami holds madhyahna only until 11:23; then Dashami. Navami: 12:20 Thu to 11:23.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Madhyahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Navami touches madhyahna on both days. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Fri 9 Apr, where it holds madhyahna until 11:23. 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.
