This festival page exposes its own route, computed occurrence day-pages, historical day anchors where present, related chart/corpus routes where locally hosted, the festival hub, yearly calendar, pañchāṅga reference layer, and the Bindu/Philosophy foundations. Textual witnesses remain visible as citation-level witnesses until every cited Purāṇa or Itihāsa passage becomes a local route.
