Shastra's reading

For anything new, 6.59 am to 8.31 am is the best of the day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 10.16 pm.

Daily archanai and worship need no muhurtham. For anything important, your family's jyotishi comes first.

Friday 2 April: Ekadasi.

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them, set by Doha's own sunrise, sunset and moonrise.
