Why This Date?
Madhyahna (Midday) Rule: Observed when the Navami tithi prevails during Madhyahna (middle 1/5th of daytime, ~10:45 AM – 1:30 PM). Lord Rama was born at midday (Abhijit Muhurta).
Tithi Determination Rule
The tithi must prevail at Madhyahna (midday). Used for festivals like Rama Navami and Ganesh Chaturthi.
