Question 1

What is Panchang?

Accepted Answer

Panchang is the traditional Vedic Hindu calendar system that tracks five key elements (Pancha Anga): Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (Sun-Moon angular relationship), Karana (half-Tithi), and Vara (weekday). Dekho Panchang computes all five elements using classical astronomical algorithms for any location worldwide.

Question 2

Why does Panchang change by location?

Accepted Answer

Panchang values depend on local sunrise and sunset times, which vary by geographic location. Since the Vedic day begins at sunrise rather than midnight, two cities in different time zones will have different Tithi, Nakshatra, and other elements active at any given moment. Our tool calculates sunrise precisely for your coordinates.

Question 3

How accurate is this Panchang?

Accepted Answer

Dekho Panchang uses Meeus astronomical algorithms to compute Sun and Moon positions with an accuracy of approximately 0.01 degrees for the Sun and 0.5 degrees for the Moon. All Panchang values have been verified to be within 1-2 minutes of leading reference sources for multiple locations worldwide.
