What the day is
'That which does not diminish.' The day is heavily sold as an auspicious time to buy gold. The tradition's actual claim is that what is **given** on this day does not diminish — the merchants inverted it.
How to keep Akshaya Tritiya
One act for the day
Give something today. The tradition says it will not run out; the merchants say to buy. Believe the older one.
The day, for New York
27 April 2066
Kept on the day its tithi runs at midday (madhyahna).
- Tithi
- Shukla Tritiya · until 14:15
- Nakshatra
- Rohini
- Sunrise – Sunset
- 05:59 – 19:48
- Abhijit Muhurta
- 12:26 – 13:21
The tithi covers that moment on both days, and almanacs choose between them by their own tradition. Both are shown.
The day is chosen by the moment the tradition reads its tithi at, and the times are that day's own, computed for this city. A festival-specific puja window is not printed: those rules differ by tradition and await a scholar's review.
