Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Fri 3 Apr in Pāthardi?
Rama Navami is on Fri 3 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:18–13:46. Navami: 07:02 to 05:02 Sat.
Navami ended at 05:02; madhyahna is Dashami.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 07:02 on Fri 3 Apr to 05:02 on Sat 4 Apr, so only Friday’s madhyahna (11:18–13:46) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
