Dattatreya Jayanti, Margashira Pournami, is the birth of the three-headed Datta, the combined form of Brahma, Vishnu and Siva, born to Atri and Anasuya. Datta pithams and the Sripada Srivallabha kshetram at Pithapuram hold the main celebrations at pradosha.

Tithi timing

Sukla Pournami begins 12 December 2027 at 11:55 PM IST and ends 13 December 2027 at 9:38 PM IST.

Timings by city: India, USA, UK, Canada, Australia

Every time is computed for the city's own coordinates and time zone (daylight saving applied); nothing is converted from IST. The last column is the part of the day the rule judges, pradosha (the first fifth of the night after sunset); the date is the day the tithi covers it. It is the window the tradition names for the observance, not a separately chosen muhurtham; we do not print other muhurthams because we have not verified them.

How the date is decided

Margashira pournami prevailing in the evening (pradosha, the hour of Datta's birth).

Date by city

Different date in 116 of 215 cities: Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area, Chicago, Dallas, New York, Atlanta, Irving, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Coppell, Fort Worth and 104 more — the tithi is judged against each city's own sunrise and local time (daylight saving included), so the day can shift for cities far from India.
