Why is Amalaki Ekadashi on Tue 15 Mar or Wed 16 Mar in Ipameri?
Smarta · For Smartas, Amalaki Ekadashi is on Tue 15 Mar: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 16 Mar.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 07:05. Ekadashi: 07:05 to 04:59 Wed.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 04:59; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 07:05 Tue to 04:59.
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 07:05 on Tue 15 Mar, after that sunrise (06:15), and ends at 04:59 on Wed 16 Mar, before the next (06:15 Wed): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Tue 15 Mar.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 15 Mar arunodaya (04:39–06:15) is Dashami. On Wed 16 Mar it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 04:59, then Dwadashi): Wed 16 Mar.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 16 Mar, 10:18–18:26 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:59 on Wed 16 Mar to 02:12 on Thu 17 Mar; harivasara ends at 10:18. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:26: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Thu 17 Mar, 06:15–18:26 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 02:12 on Thu 17 Mar, in the night, before arunodaya (04:39): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:15, to sunset, 18:26, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
