Vaishnava · Tuesday 4 April
Why is Rama Navami on Mon 3 Apr or Tue 4 Apr in Chahārbāgh?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Mon 3 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:54–13:26. Navami: 10:00 to 08:07 Tue.
Navami ended at 08:07; madhyahna is Dashami. Navami: 10:00 Mon to 08:07.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). 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 10:00 on Mon 3 Apr to 08:07 on Tue 4 Apr, so only Monday’s madhyahna (10:54–13:26) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Tue 4 Apr, at 05:48. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
