Full panchang for Sat 1 Oct in PāthardiSarva Pitru Amavasya Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Sarva Pitru Amavasya on Sat 1 Oct in Pāthardi?
Sarva Pitru Amavasya is on Sat 1 Oct: Amavasya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Chaturdashi; Amavasya begins at 20:53.
Amavasya holds all of aparahna, 13:30–15:54. Amavasya: 20:53 Fri to 17:56.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The shraddha for all ancestors is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Amavasya runs from 20:53 on Fri 30 Sep to 17:56 on Sat 1 Oct, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:30–15:54) falls within it. No text giving Sarva Pitru Amavasya’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
