Why is Dussehra on Sat 17 Oct in Pāthardi?
Dussehra is on Sat 17 Oct: Dashami touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Navami until 13:25, inside aparahna; then Dashami. Dashami: 13:25 to 11:21 Sun.
Dashami ended at 11:21; aparahna is Ekadashi. Dashami: 13:25 Sat to 11:21.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Dussehra’s rites are done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dashami runs from 13:25 on Sat 17 Oct to 11:21 on Sun 18 Oct, so it touches only Saturday’s aparahna (13:24–15:44).
The rule
Ashwina Shukla Dashami
Dussehra’s rites are done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day.
- Smarta
- the day whose aparahna Dashami holds; when it touches both, Shravana in the later aparahna takes it there, else the earlier (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
