Why is Apara Ekadashi on Wed 7 Jun or Thu 8 Jun in Sevan?

Smarta · For Smartas, Apara Ekadashi is on Wed 7 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Thu 8 Jun.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:08.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:10; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:08 Wed to 05:10.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:08 on Wed 7 Jun, after that sunrise (05:29), and ends at 05:10 on Thu 8 Jun, before the next (05:29 Thu): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Wed 7 Jun.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Wed 7 Jun arunodaya (03:53–05:29) is Dashami. On Thu 8 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:10, then Dwadashi): Thu 8 Jun.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Thu 8 Jun, 10:21–20:28 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:10 on Thu 8 Jun to 01:52 on Fri 9 Jun; harivasara ends at 10:21. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:28: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:29, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Fri 9 Jun, 05:29–20:29 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 01:52 on Fri 9 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (03:53): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:29, to sunset, 20:29, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Jyeshtha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Vaishakha Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta
Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava
Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast
on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
