Today's three riddles
Turn a card. Answer all three rightly and this portal is sealed in your sky. New riddles every morning.
The day, for New York
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.
What the day is
The lamps go to the river. In Kashi the ghats are lit end to end for the devas.
One act for the day
Take a lamp to moving water. Clean the bank before you leave it — a lamp on a filthy ghat is not an offering.
