Why is Aja Ekadashi on Sat 28 Aug?
In New Delhi
Aja Ekadashi is on Sat 28 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 15:25.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 15:25 Fri to 12:42.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 28 Aug only, at 05:57: Sat 28 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 15:25 Fri, before it (04:21–05:57).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 29 Aug, 05:57–09:36
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 12:42 on Sat 28 Aug to 09:36 on Sun 29 Aug; harivasara ends at 17:56 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 29 Aug, 05:57.
The rule
Bhadrapada Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Shravana Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
Each city’s date and times are worked out at its own sunrise and sunset; each city’s page draws the reason.
