🌌 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 2598 · Kali-2598 Ahargaṇa (days from Kali epoch) 948738.27 · 2597.6 years since 3102 BCE Ujjain midnight Julian Day 1537203.770833 · universal astronomical day-count Ayanāṁśa (Lahiri) -11.1171° · precession offset · grows ~50.29″/yr Sun-Moon angle (elongation) 112.40° · determines today's tithi (12° = 1 tithi · so 10/30)
