Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 28 May 1958

Ganga Dussehra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dashami runs from 10:26 on Tue 27 May to 07:56 on Wed 28 May, so it holds sunrise only on Wed 28 May, at 06:34. No text giving Ganga Dussehra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Ganga Dussehra: every date in Ipameri

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 07:56 on Wed 28 May, after that sunrise (06:34), and ends at 05:12 on Thu 29 May, before the next (06:35 Thu): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Wed 28 May.

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, 06:34 here. Navami ended at 10:26 Tue, before it. Dashami ends at 07:56, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 07:56 and ended at 05:12 Thu, between the sunrises of 06:34 and 06:35 Thu. Wednesday reads Dashami and Thursday reads Dwadashi: Ekadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Tue 27 May ran from sunset 17:45 Tue to sunrise 06:34, 12 h 49 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:34 to 17:44, 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, 17:44 to 06:35 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 36 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′. Hasta spans 160°00′–173°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 160°. It leaves at 00:30 Thu, for Chitra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 43.3° + 162.5° = 205.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 18:19, then Vyatipata.

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 ended at 21:13 Tue, when the lead reached 114°; Garaja runs until 07:56.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:34 to 06:35 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 14 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 17 Jun, 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 18 May, 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: 20 Mar 1958, 06:49 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 67.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2015; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1880.
