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

A fortnight for the ancestors — tarpana, and the remembering of those who made you possible. Not mourning; maintenance of a line.

One act for the day

Offer water with their names said aloud. Feed someone. Then say one true thing about them, including the difficult part.

For another city
