Why is Aja Ekadashi on Mon 26 Aug or Tue 27 Aug in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Aja Ekadashi is on Mon 26 Aug: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Tue 27 Aug.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 07:02. Ekadashi: 07:02 to 05:09 Tue.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:09; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 07:02 Mon to 05:09.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 07:02 on Mon 26 Aug, after that sunrise (06:12), and ends at 05:09 on Tue 27 Aug, before the next (06:12 Tue): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Mon 26 Aug.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Mon 26 Aug arunodaya (04:36–06:12) is Dashami. On Tue 27 Aug it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:09, then Dwadashi): Tue 27 Aug.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Tue 27 Aug, 10:31–18:48 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:09 on Tue 27 Aug to 02:36 on Wed 28 Aug; harivasara ends at 10:31. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:48: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Wed 28 Aug, 06:13–18:47 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 02:36 on Wed 28 Aug, in the night, before arunodaya (04:37): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:13, to sunset, 18:47, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

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).
