Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Mon 25 Mar 2086

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 25 Mar only, at 06:17: Mon 25 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 15:30 Sun, before it (04:41–06:17).

Padmini Ekadashi: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:17 here. Dashami ended at 15:30 Sun, before it. Ekadashi ends at 17:37, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sun 24 Mar ran from sunset 18:19 Sun to sunrise 06:17, 11 h 58 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:17 to 18:19, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:19 to 06:17 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 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′. Ashlesha spans 106°40′–120°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 106°40′. It leaves at 08:31 Tue, for Magha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 340.1° + 106.9° = 447°, one full turn and 87°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 17:52, then Dhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 04:31, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 17:37.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:17 to 06:17 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 Mar 05:05 Fri to 13 Apr 13:54 Sat the Sun stayed in Meena, entering Mesha at 14 Apr 10:05 Sun, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Chaitra, before Chaitra itself.

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 15 Mar, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 2086, 05:05 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 10° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2143; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2008.
