🌌 Cosmic Time — Where This Moment Sits in the Mahāyuga

These five values locate the requested date inside this application's declared proleptic model. Kali Year uses 18 February 3102 BCE as a traditional epoch convention; that convention is not proof of Krishna's historical departure date. Ahargaṇa is this model's day-count from that epoch. Julian Day is a continuous astronomical day-number. Ayanāṁśa is the modelled sidereal/tropical angular offset. Sun-Moon angle determines the computed tithi (0-360° elongation / 12° per tithi).
