Method of finding Karan
- Suppose we took 2 sep2016 date and Panchang from Kashi Vishwanath Panchang.
- 2nd Shukla Thithi is rising at 2:21pm and end tomorrow at 3:23 p.m.
- So lenth of Thithi is 25 hours 2miniute.
- So Karan lenth is 12hours 30 minute + 1 minute. Means 12hours 31minute.
- So, 1st Karan from start from 2:21Pm and end at
- 2:21pm + 12:31
- 14:21 + 12:31 = 26:52
- Convert in standard time so deduct 24
- 2:52 am next day
- Means end midnight Saturday at 2:52 am.
- So 2nd Karan Start from 2:52 am to 3:23 pm Saturday.
Now look the chart, so 2nd Sep 2020 thithi is Shukla 2nd Tithi. So, 1st Karan is Balava and 2nd Karan is kaulava.
