Why is Aja Ekadashi on Sat 3 Sep in Pāthardi?
Aja Ekadashi is on Sat 3 Sep: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:54 to 22:14.
Ekadashi ended at 22:14 Sat; 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 Sat 3 Sep only, at 06:14: Sat 3 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:54, before it (04:38–06:14).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 4 Sep, 06:14–18:42 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:14 on Sat 3 Sep to 19:05 on Sun 4 Sep; harivasara ends at 03:27. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 4 Sep, 06:14. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:42: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44.
The rule
