Why is Aja Ekadashi on Mon 21 Aug in Sevan?
Aja Ekadashi is on Mon 21 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:04 to 03:22 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 03:22; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:04 Mon to 03:22.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 21 Aug only, at 06:15: Mon 21 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:04, before it (04:39–06:15).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 22 Aug, 09:52–19:48 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:22 on Tue 22 Aug to 05:21 on Wed 23 Aug; harivasara ends at 09:52. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:48: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:59, which here ends before harivasara does.
