Rath Yatra Sunrise: what time?
Why is Rath Yatra on Sat 24 Jun in Maclear?
Rath Yatra is on Sat 24 Jun: Dwitiya holds sunrise that day.
Sunrise at 07:04 is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 18:22.
Dwitiya at sunrise, 07:05. Dwitiya: 18:22 Fri to 15:59.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rath Yatra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dwitiya runs from 18:22 on Fri 23 Jun to 15:59 on Sat 24 Jun, so it holds sunrise only on Sat 24 Jun, at 07:05. No text giving Rath Yatra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
