Why is Aja Ekadashi on Thu 16 Aug in Sevan?

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: 03:04 to 00:47 Fri.

Ekadashi ended at 00:47; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). 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 07:11: Thu 16 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:04, before it (05:35–07:11).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 17 Aug, 07:12–20:55 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:47 on Fri 17 Aug to 22:37 on Fri 17 Aug; harivasara ends at 06:15. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 17 Aug, 07:12. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:55: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:56.

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).
