When is Dussehra 2014 in Diffa?
Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Fri 3 Oct in Diffa?
Dussehra is on Fri 3 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:10–15:34. Dashami: 05:28 to 02:54 Sat.
Dashami ended at 02:54; aparahna is Ekadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). 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 05:28 on Fri 3 Oct to 02:54 on Sat 4 Oct, so only Friday’s aparahna (13:10–15:34) 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.
