Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Tue 22 Oct in Pāthardi?
By the Nirnayasindhu, Dussehra is on Tue 22 Oct: Dashami touches aparahna on both days and it takes the earlier.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:23–15:42. Dashami: 13:13 to 13:42 Wed.
Dashami holds aparahna only until 13:42; then Ekadashi. Dashami: 13:13 Tue to 13:42.
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 13:13 on Tue 22 Oct to 13:42 on Wed 23 Oct, touching aparahna on both days. When it does, the Nirnayasindhu takes the earlier day: Tue 22 Oct.
