Today's Panchang in New York

Flushing's Ganesha Temple and the Hindu Temple Society still publish some notices in IST. For a New York vrat, the governing sunrise is the one over Queens, not Delhi — which in August is roughly 10.5 hours behind IST. Janmashtami midnight abhishek at ISKCON Brooklyn is local midnight, not 12:00 IST replayed on a projector.

Eastern Time springs forward on the second Sunday in March and falls back on the first Sunday in November. The Sunday of the change, daylight Choghadiya is one slot shorter; do not reuse Saturday's printed table.

• Hindu Temple Society of North America (Ganesh Temple)

  Flushing, Queens

  Daily Ganapati abhishekam timed to the temple's Eastern-Time schedule; weekend kalyanotsavam draws the Tamil and Telugu belt of Queens.

• ISKCON New York

  Brooklyn

  Janmashtami and Ekadashi programmes run on the local civil date; parana is announced after the New York sunrise, not a Delhi clock.

• Shri Maha Vallabha Ganapati Devasthanam

  Flushing

  South Indian agama calendar; Brahma Muhurat pujas on festival mornings follow the Queens sunrise table.
