When is Dussehra 2003 in Baoding?
Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Sat 4 Oct in Baoding?
Dussehra is on Sat 4 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:16–15:37. Dashami: 13:12 to 12:27 Sun.
Dashami ended at 12:27; aparahna is Ekadashi. Dashami: 13:12 Sat to 12:27.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). 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 13:12 on Sat 4 Oct to 12:27 on Sun 5 Oct, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:16–15:37) falls within it.
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.
