Why is Rama Navami on Wed 14 Apr or Thu 15 Apr in Midleton?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Wed 14 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 12:10–14:56. Navami: 10:54 to 08:51 Thu.
Navami ended at 08:51; madhyahna is Dashami.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). 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 10:54 on Wed 14 Apr to 08:51 on Thu 15 Apr, so only Wednesday’s madhyahna (12:10–14:56) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Thu 15 Apr, at 06:37. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
