Smarta · Thursday 1 April
Vaishnava · Friday 2 April
Why is Rama Navami on Thu 1 Apr or Fri 2 Apr in Olean?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Thu 1 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna that day, and no other.
Ashtami until 11:12, inside madhyahna; then Navami. Navami: 11:12 to 09:30 Fri.
Navami ended at 09:30; madhyahna is Dashami. Navami: 11:12 Thu to 09:30.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). 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 11:12 on Thu 1 Apr to 09:30 on Fri 2 Apr, so it touches only Thursday’s madhyahna (11:01–13:34).
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Fri 2 Apr, at 05:55. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
