Why is Aja Ekadashi on Fri 4 Sep in Sevan?
Aja Ekadashi is on Fri 4 Sep: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 05:59, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:59 to 08:03 Fri.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:59 Thu to 08:03.
Dwadashi: 08:03 Fri to 09:34, longer than its day: it grows too.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 06:29 on Thu 3 Sep and 06:30 on Fri 4 Sep. Ekadashi (05:59 Thu 3 Sep to 08:03 Fri 4 Sep) and Dwadashi (08:03 Fri 4 Sep to 09:34 Sat 5 Sep) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Fri 4 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Thu 3 Sep Dashami lasts until 05:59, inside it (04:53–06:29); on Fri 4 Sep Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 5 Sep, 06:31–09:34
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 08:03 on Fri 4 Sep to 09:34 on Sat 5 Sep; harivasara ends at 14:26 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 5 Sep, 06:31.
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).
