How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 18 May? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 157.8°: Shukla Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:40 here. Trayodashi ended at 02:39, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 04:51 Mon, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 5 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sun 18 May? 05:24–06:02
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:24–06:02.
The night of Sat 17 May ran from sunset 21:11 Sat to sunrise 06:40, 9 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Dur Muhurtam is the 14th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 19:16–20:14.
Daylight here, 06:40 to 21:12, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Sunday is the 14th, 19:16–20:14.

Daylight here, 06:40 to 21:12, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 21:12 to 06:39 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 18 May? Swati
At sunrise the Moon was at 191.4°: Swati, pada 2.
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 2 at 190°. It leaves at 00:00 Mon, for Vishakha.
Which yoga is it on Sun 18 May? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 224.9°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 33.5° + 191.4° = 224.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 09:58, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Sun 18 May? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 157.8°: the first half of Chaturdashi, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 15:44, when the lead reaches 162°; Vanija until 04:51 Mon.
Which vara is Sun 18 May, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:40 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:40 to 06:39 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 18 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 5 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 Sun 18 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 5 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sun 18 May in? Vikram 2065 · Shaka 1930
Vikram Samvat 2065 began at the Chaitra new moon of 6 Apr 2008.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 6 Apr 2008, 08:55 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 40.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2065; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1930.
