Why is Aja Ekadashi on Thu 6 Sep in Pāthardi?
Aja Ekadashi is on Thu 6 Sep: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 15:00.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 15:00 Wed to 12:15.
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 Thu 6 Sep only, at 06:15: Thu 6 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 15:00 Wed, before it (04:39–06:15).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 7 Sep, 06:15–09:12
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 12:15 on Thu 6 Sep to 09:12 on Fri 7 Sep; harivasara ends at 17:29 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 7 Sep, 06:15.
The rule
Bhadrapada Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Shravana Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
