Why is Rama Navami on Sun 17 Apr or Mon 18 Apr in Sevan?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Sun 17 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 12:39–15:20. Navami: 08:49 to 11:09 Mon.
Navami ended at 11:09; madhyahna is Dashami. Navami: 08:49 Sun to 11:09.
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 08:49 on Sun 17 Apr to 11:09 on Mon 18 Apr, so only Sunday’s madhyahna (12:39–15:20) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Mon 18 Apr, at 07:17. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
