What the day is
The birth of Rama — the tradition's model not of power but of conduct under impossible constraint. The point of Rama is never what he could do; it is what he would not do.
How to keep Rama Navami
One act for the day
Keep a promise today that is costing you something. That is the entire teaching.
The day, for Ahmedabad
6 April 2074
Kept on the day its tithi runs at midday (madhyahna).
- Tithi
- Shukla Navami · until 13:10
- Nakshatra
- Pushya
- Sunrise – Sunset
- 06:27 – 18:57
- Abhijit Muhurta
- 12:17 – 13:07
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.
