Why is Aja Ekadashi on Wed 15 Aug in Sevan?
Aja Ekadashi is on Wed 15 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:35 Tue to 01:35 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 01:35; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 23:35 Tue to 01:35.
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 Wed 15 Aug only, at 05:07: Wed 15 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:35 Tue, before it (03:31–05:07).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 16 Aug, 08:00–18:57 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:35 on Thu 16 Aug to 03:08 on Fri 17 Aug; harivasara ends at 07:58. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:55: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:53, which here ends before harivasara does.
