Why is Amalaki Ekadashi on Sat 28 Feb in Ipameri?
Amalaki Ekadashi is on Sat 28 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:54 to 05:32 Sun.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:32; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:54 Sat to 05:32.
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 Sat 28 Feb only, at 06:11: Sat 28 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:54, before it (04:35–06:11).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 1 Mar, 12:03–18:38 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:32 on Sun 1 Mar to 07:35 on Mon 2 Mar; harivasara ends at 12:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:38: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:41, which here ends before harivasara does.
