Why is Dussehra on Tue 11 Oct in Diffa?
Dussehra is on Tue 11 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 18:23.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:07–15:30. Dashami: 18:23 Mon to 17:58.
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 18:23 on Mon 10 Oct to 17:58 on Tue 11 Oct, so only Tuesday’s aparahna (13:07–15:30) 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.
