THE SOLANKI PERIOD
151
V. 1292 expired Caitrādi : Sunday, 27 May, A.C. (or current Kārttikādi)
1235 V. 1292 expired Kārttikādi : Thursday, 15 May,
A.C. 1236 The given tithi does not tally with the given weekday on any of the three dates mentioned above. But it is nearest to Sunday, 27 May, A.C. 1235. On calculation it is found, that the given tithi ends few minutes after true sunrise on Sunday even according to the Brahma Siddhānta.
It may, therefore, be suggested that the tithi mentioned here is the tithi which commenced on the given week-day and was current at the time of the Pratișthā and not the tithi that was current at sunrise on the given day. 115. V. 1287-JDPLS., Pari i, No. 580, Vadnagar image
