When is Dussehra 2023 in Thazhecode?
Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Tue 24 Oct in Thazhecode?
Dussehra is on Tue 24 Oct: Dashami touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 17:45. Dashami: 17:45 to 15:14 Tue.
Dashami holds aparahna only until 15:14; then Ekadashi. Dashami: 17:45 Mon to 15:14.
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 17:45 on Mon 23 Oct to 15:14 on Tue 24 Oct, so it touches only Tuesday’s aparahna (13:20–15:42).
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.
