Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sun 23 Oct 2033

Govardhan Puja is done in pratahkala, the first fifth of the day. Pratipada began at 04:28 on Sun 23 Oct, before that morning’s pratahkala, and ended at 06:58 on Mon 24 Oct, partway into the next. The Nirnayasindhu takes the morning Pratipada fills: Sun 23 Oct. No text giving Govardhan Puja’s time was found; pratahkala is Tithika’s convention.

Govardhan Puja: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:38 here. Amavasya ended at 04:28, before it. Pratipada ends at 06:58 Mon, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 23 Oct, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Pratipada began at 04:28, before sunrise at 05:38, and ends at 06:58 Mon, after the next sunrise at 05:37 Mon. Both days read Pratipada: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sat 22 Oct ran from sunset 18:15 Sat to sunrise 05:38, 11 h 23 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:38 to 18:15, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:15 to 05:37 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 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 4 at 183°20′. It leaves at 06:04, for Swati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 185.9° + 186.5° = 372.4°, one full turn and 12.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 07:25, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna runs until 17:45, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 06:58 Mon.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:38 to 05:37 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 21 Nov, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 23 Oct, with the Sun in Tula, began Kartika. This Shukla paksha reads Kartika in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 30 Mar 2033, 14:51 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 199.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2090; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1955.
