The Greatness of Hari’s Janmāṣṭamī (Jayantī) Vow
कार्याविद्धापि सप्तम्यां रोहिणीसंयुताष्टमी । कलाकाष्ठामुहूर्तेऽपि यदा कृष्णाष्टमीतिथिः
kāryāviddhāpi saptamyāṃ rohiṇīsaṃyutāṣṭamī | kalākāṣṭhāmuhūrte'pi yadā kṛṣṇāṣṭamītithiḥ
Walaupun Saptamī tidak sesuai untuk memulakan upacara, namun apabila Aṣṭamī bersatu dengan nakṣatra Rohiṇī—bahkan sekadar sepanjang satu kalā, kāṣṭhā atau satu muhūrta—maka waktu itu dianggap sebagai tithi Kṛṣṇa-aṣṭamī.

FAQs
It prioritizes the presence of Aṣṭamī conjoined with the Rohiṇī nakṣatra—even for very brief durations (kalā/kāṣṭhā/muhūrta)—as sufficient to designate the observance as Kṛṣṇa-aṣṭamī.
They indicate that even a minimal overlap of the Aṣṭamī tithi with Rohiṇī is ritually significant for determining the correct observance time.
No; it speaks of Kṛṣṇa-aṣṭamī tithi determination with Rohiṇī. Many traditions connect Rohiṇī-yukta Kṛṣṇa-aṣṭamī with Kṛṣṇa’s birth observance, but that linkage would be confirmed from surrounding context.
