Why is Rama Navami on Sun 21 Apr in Olean?
Rama Navami is on Sun 21 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Madhyahna is Ashtami; Navami begins at 20:05.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:50–14:34. Navami: 20:05 Sat to 18:10.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). 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 20:05 on Sat 20 Apr to 18:10 on Sun 21 Apr, so only Sunday’s madhyahna (11:50–14:34) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
