Panchanga

A five-limbed traditional calendar framework combining Tithi, Vara, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana.

Definition

Panchanga is not one astronomical quantity. It is a framework that combines five distinct calendar factors, usually read with local sunrise and other traditional timing rules.

Example
