The tradition names no separate muhurat for this festival — it is observed through the day. Abhijit is the day’s generally auspicious window and Rahu Kaal the one to avoid.
Naraka Chaturdashi, or Choti Diwali, marks Krishna’s killing of the demon Narakasura on the fourteenth of the waning moon in Kartik. In some years it shares a date with Diwali itself.
An oil bath before dawn — the Abhyanga Snan — is the day’s central rite, taken as a washing away of the year’s wrongs. A single lamp is lit for Yama at dusk.
