Why is Aja Ekadashi on Tue 8 Sep in Pāthardi?

Aja Ekadashi is on Tue 8 Sep: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:10 to 04:07 Wed.

Ekadashi ended at 04:07; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:10 Tue to 04:07.

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 Tue 8 Sep only, at 06:15: Tue 8 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:10, before it (04:39–06:15).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 9 Sep, 10:29–18:37 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:07 on Wed 9 Sep to 05:35 on Thu 10 Sep; harivasara ends at 10:29. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:37: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43, which here ends before harivasara does.

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).
