How this is computed
- Sunrise and sunset are the Sun's upper edge with refraction, as Drik Panchang, the almanacs and newspapers print them; the tithi at sunrise and every muhurta count from it. The traditional disc-centre time (Hindu rising, no refraction) is shown alongside, a few minutes later.
- Sidereal positions under the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa, 24.2210°.
- The Hindu day runs from sunrise to sunrise and the vara is the weekday of the sunrise. End times are found to the minute from the Swiss Ephemeris.
