Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Tue 20 Oct in Bothell?
Dussehra is on Tue 20 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 00:20 Tue.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:56–16:03. Dashami: 00:20 to 01:42 Wed.
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 00:20 on Tue 20 Oct to 01:42 on Wed 21 Oct, so only Tuesday’s aparahna (13:56–16:03) falls within it.
The rule

- Smarta

- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
