Why is Aja Ekadashi on Wed 15 Aug in Sevan?

Aja Ekadashi is on Wed 15 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:20 to 03:56 Thu.

Ekadashi ended at 03:56; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:20 Wed to 03:56.

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 sunrise on Wed 15 Aug only, at 06:11: Wed 15 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:20, before it (04:35–06:11).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 16 Aug, 10:27–19:55 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:56 on Thu 16 Aug to 05:58 on Fri 17 Aug; harivasara ends at 10:27. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:55: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:56, which here ends before harivasara does.

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).
