Chapter 42 mentions multiple calendar systems to pinpoint the day of Baba's passing. What are the different dates and timings provided?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 42

Chapter 42 of the Sai Satcharitra meticulously records the time of Sai Baba's Mahasamadhi using several calendar references. It specifies the year as Shaka 1840. From the Hindu lunar calendar, it was Vijayadashami, which is the tenth day of the bright half of the month (Shukla Paksha). It also aligns this with the Islamic calendar, noting it was the 9th day of the Muslim month and the eve of Moharram, known as the night of 'Kattal'. The text further elaborates on the precise time, stating it was during the third watch of the day when the Dashami tithi completed and Ekadashi began, right around twelve-thirty.
