Why is Aja Ekadashi on Mon 29 Aug in Pāthardi?

Aja Ekadashi is on Mon 29 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:07 to 23:19.

Ekadashi ended at 23:19 Mon; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

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 Mon 29 Aug only, at 06:13: Mon 29 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:07, before it (04:37–06:13).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 30 Aug, 06:13–18:46 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:19 on Mon 29 Aug to 20:03 on Tue 30 Aug; harivasara ends at 04:30. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 30 Aug, 06:13. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43.

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).
