Why is Dussehra on Thu 14 Oct in Berkeley?

Dussehra is on Thu 14 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.

Dashami holds all of aparahna, 14:02–16:17. Dashami: 06:22 to 05:32 Fri.

Dashami ended at 05:32; aparahna is Ekadashi.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). 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 06:22 on Thu 14 Oct to 05:32 on Fri 15 Oct, so only Thursday’s aparahna (14:02–16:17) 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.
