Purnima
The full-moon tithi, associated with varied monthly worship and family traditions.
A tithi and an astronomical instant
Purnima is a tithi interval in the lunar calendar. The exact astronomical full moon is an instant, so the two are related but not interchangeable. Named Purnimas carry different devotional and seasonal associations.
