Why is Aja Ekadashi on Thu 16 Aug in Pāthardi?
Aja Ekadashi is on Thu 16 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:34 to 01:17 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 01:17; 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 Thu 16 Aug only, at 06:10: Thu 16 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:34, before it (04:34–06:10).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 17 Aug, 06:45–18:55 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:17 on Fri 17 Aug to 23:07 on Fri 17 Aug; harivasara ends at 06:45. 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 08:43.
