Common questions
3 questionsWhich vrats come every month?
Two Ekadashis, two Pradosh vrats, Purnima and Amavasya, Sankashti Chaturthi, Masik Shivratri and Masik Durgashtami. Each is a tithi of the lunar month, so its date moves through the solar calendar.
Why is a vrat sometimes a day earlier or later than I expected?
A tithi begins and ends at a real minute, not at midnight, and each vrat is kept by its own moment: Ekadashi by the sunrise, Pradosh by the evening, Sankashti by moonrise, Shivratri by the middle of the night. So two neighbouring days can each hold part of the tithi, and the rule picks one.
Which calendar are these dates from?
The North Indian Purnimanta calendar for New Delhi, worked out from the planets’ positions with the Lahiri ayanamsa, and checked against the standard panchangs.
