Why is Aja Ekadashi on Sun 8 Sep in Sevan?
Aja Ekadashi is on Sun 8 Sep: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 15:48.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 15:48 Sat to 18:14.
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 Sun 8 Sep only, at 06:33: Sun 8 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 15:48 Sat, before it (04:57–06:33).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 9 Sep, 06:34–19:18 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:14 on Sun 8 Sep to 20:43 on Mon 9 Sep; harivasara ends at 00:51. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 9 Sep, 06:34. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:18: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:07.
