Why is Aja Ekadashi on Thu 25 Aug in Sevan?
Aja Ekadashi is on Thu 25 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 21:37 Wed to 21:31.
Ekadashi ended at 21:31 Thu; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Thu 25 Aug only, at 06:20: Thu 25 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 21:37 Wed, before it (04:44–06:20).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 26 Aug, 06:21–19:41 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:31 on Thu 25 Aug to 21:50 on Fri 26 Aug; harivasara ends at 03:36. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 26 Aug, 06:21. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:41: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:01.
