Why is Apara Ekadashi on Mon 23 May in Sevan?
Apara Ekadashi is on Mon 23 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 16:15 Sun to 18:48.
Ekadashi ended at 18:48 Mon; 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 Mon 23 May only, at 04:37: Mon 23 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 16:15 Sun, before it (03:01–04:37).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 24 May, 04:36–19:17 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:48 on Mon 23 May to 21:07 on Tue 24 May; harivasara ends at 01:23. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 24 May, 04:36. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:17: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:32.
