New Delhi, Feb 25: In Hindu traditions, the Panchang serves as an essential guide for determining auspicious and inauspicious timings for all life events. Thursday, February 26, is dedicated to Lord Narayana and Guru Brihaspati, making it a day of spiritual significance.
The Shukla Paksha Dashami tithi prevails until midnight 12:33 AM, transitioning into Ekadashi thereafter. Composed of five key elements—tithi, vara, nakshatra, yoga, and karana—the Panchang provides precise insights.
According to Drik Panchang, Mrigashira nakshatra lasts until 12:11 PM, followed by Ardra. Preeti yoga endures until 10:33 PM. This Thursday is blessed with Ravi Yoga, renowned for delivering positive outcomes throughout the day. Sunrise occurs at 6:49 AM, with sunset at 6:19 PM.
These components aid in identifying muhurats ideal for important activities. Abhijit Muhurat spans 12:11 PM to 12:57 PM, Vijay Muhurat from 2:29 PM to 3:15 PM—both perfect for ceremonies. Brahma Muhurat is from 5:09 AM to 5:59 AM, Godhuli from 6:16 PM to 6:42 PM, and Amrit Kaal from 1:23 AM to 2:53 AM. Ravi Yoga enhances the day’s potency.
Vigilance is crucial during inauspicious periods. Rahu Kaal runs 2:00 PM to 3:27 PM, Yamaganda 6:49 AM to 8:16 AM, Gulika Kaal 9:42 AM to 11:08 AM, and Dur Muhurat 10:39 AM to 11:25 AM. Avoid initiating new ventures then.
Devoted to Brihaspati and Narayana, Thursday calls for special worship, donations, yellow attire, yellow foods, and applying yellow sandalwood or turmeric on the forehead for blessings.
