How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 8 May? Shukla Pratipada
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 1.8°: Shukla Pratipada.
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, 04:51 here. Amavasya ended at 01:45, before it. Pratipada ends at 22:08, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 8 May? 03:33–04:12
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:33–04:12.
The night of Wed 7 May ran from sunset 19:00 Wed to sunrise 04:51, 9 h 51 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 39 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 8 May? Bharani
At sunrise the Moon was at 25.9°: Bharani, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 23°20′. It leaves at 06:07, for Krittika.
Which yoga is it on Thu 8 May? Saubhagya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 49.9°: Saubhagya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 24° + 25.9° = 49.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 09:58, then Shobhana.
Which karana is it on Thu 8 May? Kinstughna
At sunrise the lead was 1.8°: the first half of Pratipada, Kinstughna.
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 11:57, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 22:08.
Which vara is Thu 8 May, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 04:51 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:51 to 04:50 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 8 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 8 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 8 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 8 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 8 May in? Vikram 1959 · Shaka 1824
Vikram Samvat 1959 began at the Chaitra new moon of 8 Apr 1902.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 8 Apr 1902, 16:49 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 28.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1959; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1824.
