Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Wed 16 Apr in Sevan?
By the Dharmasindhu, Rama Navami is on Wed 16 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna on both days and it takes the later.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 12:40–15:20. Navami: 10:59 to 13:17 Wed.
Navami holds madhyahna only until 13:17; then Dashami. Navami: 10:59 Tue to 13:17.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). 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: Wed 16 Apr, where it holds madhyahna until 13:17. Every reading takes that day.
