Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Tue 25 Jun 1912

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 25 Jun only, at 05:52: Tue 25 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 12:54 Mon, before it (04:16–05:52).

Padmini Ekadashi: every date in Pāthardi

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, 05:52 here. Dashami ended at 12:54 Mon, before it. Ekadashi ends at 13:22, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Mon 24 Jun ran from sunset 19:09 Mon to sunrise 05:52, 10 h 43 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 42 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:52 to 19:10, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 39 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:10 to 05:53 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 20 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′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 196°40′. It leaves at 08:11, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 70.4° + 198.8° = 269.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 00:59 Wed, then Sadhya.

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 01:04, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 13:22.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:52 to 05:53 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 Jun 11:53 Sat to 14 Jul 18:42 Sun the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 15 Jul 18:32 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 1912, 03:38 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 95.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1969; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1834.
