Why is Dussehra on Wed 24 Oct in Thazhecode?
Dussehra is on Wed 24 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 19:38.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:20–15:42. Dashami: 19:38 Tue to 19:22.
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 19:38 on Tue 23 Oct to 19:22 on Wed 24 Oct, so only Wednesday’s aparahna (13:20–15:42) 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.
