Devuthani Ekadashi 2026 in Houston — parana window

Hindu festival dates follow the tithi at local sunrise, not a fixed Gregorian date and not a simple IST conversion. Houston sits in a different timezone from India, and sunrise happens at a different longitude — so the same Kartika tithi can name a different civil morning. Muhurat windows (Pradosh Kaal, Aparahna, moonrise, Arghya) are always recomputed from this place's coordinates.

Keep a sattvic fast on the Ekadashi civil day. Parana is after the next local sunrise, once Ekadashi tithi has ended — use the window below. Many households also begin Tulsi Vivah preparations on this awakening of Vishnu.
