Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Thu 17 Oct 1968

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 17 Oct only, at 05:42: Thu 17 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:44, before it (04:06–05:42).

Rama Ekadashi: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 300°–312° is the 26th, Krishna Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:42 here. Dashami ended at 02:44, before it. Ekadashi ends at 02:31 Fri, when the lead reaches 312°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 6 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Wed 16 Oct ran from sunset 18:13 Wed to sunrise 05:42, 11 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:42 to 18:13, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:13 to 05:41 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 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′. Magha spans 120°00′–133°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 120°. It leaves at 02:15 Fri, for Purva Phalguni.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 180.6° + 122.1° = 302.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 12:28, then Shukla.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 14:43, when the lead reaches 306°; Balava until 02:31 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:42 to 05:41 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 16 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 21 Oct, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 21 Oct, with the Sun in Tula, begins Kartika. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Kartika here, and Ashwina in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 28 Mar 1968, 19:47 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 195.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2025; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1890.
