Why is Amalaki Ekadashi on Thu 29 Feb in Ipameri?
Amalaki Ekadashi is on Thu 29 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:45 Wed to 23:15.
Ekadashi ended at 23:15 Thu; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 29 Feb only, at 06:11: Thu 29 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:45 Wed, before it (04:35–06:11).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 1 Mar, 06:12–18:37 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:15 on Thu 29 Feb to 01:34 on Sat 2 Mar; harivasara ends at 05:50. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 1 Mar, 06:12. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:37: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:41.
