Why is Aja Ekadashi on Mon 20 Aug in Sevan?
Aja Ekadashi is on Mon 20 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:14 to 01:34 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 01:34; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:14 Mon to 01:34.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 20 Aug only, at 05:12: Mon 20 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:14, before it (03:36–05:12).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 21 Aug, 07:47–18:49 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:34 on Tue 21 Aug to 02:20 on Wed 22 Aug; harivasara ends at 07:45. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:47: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:56.
