Why sunrise matters in Brahmapur Town
In the Hindu calendar the day begins at sunrise, not midnight — so the vara (weekday) changes at 5:23 am in Brahmapur Town, not at 12 am. A ritual performed before sunrise still belongs to the previous weekday.
Sunrise also anchors every timing on this site. Rahu Kaal, Yamagandam, Gulika Kaal, Choghadiya and Hora are all fractions of the interval between sunrise and sunset, so a few minutes’ error in sunrise shifts all of them. That is why these are computed from Brahmapur Town’s own latitude and longitude rather than a single reference city.
Today in Brahmapur Town the tithi is Navami and the nakshatra Swati.
