Why is Rama Navami on Sat 13 Apr or Sun 14 Apr in Sevan?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Sat 13 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:41–14:20. Navami: 10:11 to 08:05 Sun.
Navami ended at 08:05; madhyahna is Dashami.
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 10:11 on Sat 13 Apr to 08:05 on Sun 14 Apr, so only Saturday’s madhyahna (11:41–14:20) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Sun 14 Apr, at 06:23. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
