Smarta · Tuesday 15 April
Vaishnava · Wednesday 16 April
Why is Rama Navami on Tue 15 Apr or Wed 16 Apr in Myjava?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Tue 15 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:27–14:12. Navami: 07:59 to 10:17 Wed.
Navami ended at 10:17; madhyahna is Dashami. Navami: 07:59 Tue to 10:17.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). 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 07:59 on Tue 15 Apr to 10:17 on Wed 16 Apr, so only Tuesday’s madhyahna (11:27–14:12) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Wed 16 Apr, at 05:57. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
