Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 22 Jun 1904

Ganga Dussehra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dashami runs from 21:21 on Tue 21 Jun to 19:52 on Wed 22 Jun, so it holds sunrise only on Wed 22 Jun, at 06:35. No text giving Ganga Dussehra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Ganga Dussehra: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:42 here. Navami ended at 21:27 Tue, before it. Dashami ends at 19:58, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 13 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

Sunrise here, 05:14, came before Navami ended at 05:48: this day reads Navami. Dashami ends at 04:19 Thu, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dashami: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:42, came after Navami ended at 21:27 Tue: this day reads Dashami.

The night of Tue 21 Jun ran from sunset 17:46 Tue to sunrise 06:42, 12 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:42 to 17:46, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 23 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:46 to 06:42 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 180°. It leaves at 16:44, for Swati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 68° + 180.9° = 248.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 240°00′–253°20′ is the 19th, Parigha. It ends at 13:55, then Shiva.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 08:41, when the lead reaches 114°; Garaja until 19:58.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:42 to 06:42 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

An amanta month runs from new moon to new moon and takes its name from the rashi the Sun is in at the new moon that begins it: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 13 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 13 Jul, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

A purnimanta month runs from full moon to full moon, so its waning half comes first. It shares its name with the amanta month that its second half falls in: the new moon of 13 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 1904, 02:39 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 94.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1961; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1826.
