Why is Rama Navami on Wed 22 Apr or Thu 23 Apr in Codcod?
Smarta · Rama Navami is on Wed 22 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:31–13:00. Navami: 06:39 to 07:18 Thu.
Navami ended at 07:18; madhyahna is Dashami.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). 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 06:39 on Wed 22 Apr to 07:18 on Thu 23 Apr, so only Wednesday’s madhyahna (10:31–13:00) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Rama Navami on a tithi that Ashtami does not pierce: Navami holds sunrise on Thu 23 Apr, at 05:32. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
