Why is Aja Ekadashi on Sat 15 Aug in Pāthardi?
Aja Ekadashi is on Sat 15 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 14:02.

Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 16 Aug, 06:10–13:51
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:20 on Sat 15 Aug to 13:51 on Sun 16 Aug; harivasara ends at 20:13 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 16 Aug, 06:10. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43.
