Why is Sharad Purnima on Tue 23 Oct in Pāthardi?
Sharad Purnima is on Tue 23 Oct: Purnima holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Purnima holds all of nishitha, 23:48–00:38 Wed. Purnima: 22:36 to 22:15 Wed.
Purnima ended at 22:15; nishitha is Pratipada. Purnima: 22:36 Tue to 22:15.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Sharad Purnima’s night centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Purnima runs from 22:36 on Tue 23 Oct to 22:15 on Wed 24 Oct, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:48–00:38 Wed) falls within it. No text giving Sharad Purnima’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.
