Why is Aja Ekadashi on Sun 28 Aug in Pāthardi?
Aja Ekadashi is on Sun 28 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 16:37.

Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 29 Aug, 06:13–14:29
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:22 on Sun 28 Aug to 14:29 on Mon 29 Aug; harivasara ends at 21:09 Sun. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 29 Aug, 06:13. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44.
