Bhai Dooj (Yama Dwitiya) closes the Diwali festival. Sisters apply a tilak to their brothers, perform aarti and pray for their long life; brothers give gifts and a promise of protection. It recalls Yamuna feeding her brother Yama on this day, who blessed every brother who visits his sister then.
Bhai Dooj is kept on Kartik Shukla Dwitiya, with the tilak in Aparahna, the fourth of the day's five parts.
The tilak is best applied in Aparahna, the afternoon — the fourth of the day's five parts between sunrise and sunset. That window for your city is on this page.
Bhai Dooj falls on in Barmer.
