Why is Dussehra on Sat 30 Sep in Diffa?
Dussehra is on Sat 30 Sep: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 19:20.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:11–15:35. Dashami: 19:20 Fri to 21:06.
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 19:20 on Fri 29 Sep to 21:06 on Sat 30 Sep, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:11–15:35) 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.
