Questions
From the Nirṇaya-sindhu, quoting the Tithi-tattva, with the page for each.
When is Rath Yatra 2027?
In Puri, on Monday, 5 July 2027, the Āṣāḍha śukla Dvitīyā. Puṣya joins the Dvitīyā from Mon 5 Jul, 09:19 to Tue 6 Jul, 01:14. the Skanda in the Tithi-tattva, quoted by NS p. 149
Why does the date follow the Dvitiya tithi?
The text sets the chariot festival on the bright Dvitīyā of Āṣāḍha, joined with Puṣya when the star falls on it. The tithi fixes the day; when it spans two days, we take the one with the Dvitīyā at sunrise, joined with the Tṛtīyā, and when it holds two sunrises, the first, as practice keeps it. the Skanda in the Tithi-tattva, quoted by NS p. 149
Is Pushya nakshatra needed?
No. The text joins the day with Puṣya when the star falls on the Dvitīyā; without the star, the procession is held on the tithi. Each year’s page shows Puṣya’s span within the Dvitīyā when they meet. the Skanda in the Tithi-tattva, quoted by NS p. 149
Why is the date different in the US or UK?
The Dvitīyā begins and ends at the same moment everywhere, but sunrise comes at different hours, so the day it is current at sunrise can differ in a city far to the west or east. NS p. 149
How the day is found
Read the methodology- The day
- The Āṣāḍha śukla Dvitīyā, joined with Puṣya when it falls (NS p. 149, the Skanda in the Tithi-tattva).
- Two days
- The Dvitīyā current at sunrise, joined with the Tṛtīyā; at two sunrises, the first, matched to practice; at none, the day it falls on: our reading.
- Puṣya
- The star’s span within the Dvitīyā, when they meet.
- Sunrise
- At the centre of the Sun’s disc, with refraction, for the chosen city. Every date is that city’s own.
