There seems to be a slight contradiction regarding the lunar day of Baba's Mahasamadhi. How does Chapter 42 explain this?

πŸ“– Chapter 42

Chapter 42 addresses this nuance by providing a precise timeline. While the day of Baba's passing is widely known as Vijayadashami, which corresponds to the tenth lunar day (Dashami), the text clarifies the exact timing. It states that the bell struck at twelve-thirty in the day, at which point the Dashami period was completed. The narrative then explicitly mentions, "Ekadashi dawned; the time of departure was Ekadashi." Therefore, according to Chapter 42, although the day itself began as Dussehra (Dashami), the specific moment of Sainath's departure occurred just after the eleventh lunar day (Ekadashi) had technically begun.
