How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 8 May? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 22.3°: Shukla Dwitiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:51 here. Pratipada ended at 06:25 Mon, before it. Dwitiya ends at 08:31, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 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 Mon 7 May ran from sunset 19:00 Mon 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 Tue 8 May? Rohini
At sunrise the Moon was at 45.8°: Rohini, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 43°20′. It leaves at 19:57, for Mrigashira.
Which yoga is it on Tue 8 May? Atiganda
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 69.3°: Atiganda.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 23.5° + 45.8° = 69.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 66°40′–80°00′ is the 6th, Atiganda. It ends at 00:43 Wed, then Sukarma.
Which karana is it on Tue 8 May? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 22.3°: the second half of Dwitiya, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 19:26 Mon, when the lead reached 18°; Kaulava runs until 08:31.
Which vara is Tue 8 May, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 04:51 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:51 to 04:50 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 8 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 6 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, 4 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 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 6 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 8 May in? Vikram 2008 · Shaka 1873
Vikram Samvat 2008 began at the Chaitra new moon of 6 Apr 1951.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 6 Apr 1951, 13:51 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 30.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2008; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1873.
