Why is Amalaki Ekadashi on Thu 25 Feb or Fri 26 Feb in Ipameri?
Smarta · For Smartas, Amalaki Ekadashi is on Thu 25 Feb: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 26 Feb.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 07:09. Ekadashi: 07:09 to 05:48 Fri.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:48; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 07:09 Thu to 05:48.
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 begins at 07:09 on Thu 25 Feb, after that sunrise (06:10), and ends at 05:48 on Fri 26 Feb, before the next (06:10 Fri): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Thu 25 Feb.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 25 Feb arunodaya (04:34–06:10) is Dashami. On Fri 26 Feb it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:48, then Dwadashi): Fri 26 Feb.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Fri 26 Feb, 11:32–18:40 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:48 on Fri 26 Feb to 04:46 on Sat 27 Feb; harivasara ends at 11:32. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:40: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:40, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sat 27 Feb, 04:35–04:46 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 04:46 on Sat 27 Feb, after arunodaya begins (04:35) and before sunrise (06:11). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: Tithika’s convention.
