🌌 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).
| Kali Year | 5118 · Kali-5118 |

| Ahargaṇa (days from Kali epoch) | 1869363.27 · 5118.1 years since 3102 BCE Ujjain midnight |

| Ayanāṁśa (Lahiri) | 24.0933° · precession offset · grows ~50.29″/yr |
| Sun-Moon angle (elongation) | 221.93° · determines today's tithi (12° = 1 tithi · so 19/30) |
