Why is Apara Ekadashi on Thu 6 Jun in Sevan?
Apara Ekadashi is on Thu 6 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 22:53 Wed to 00:59 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 00:59; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 6 Jun only, at 06:30: Thu 6 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:53 Wed, before it (04:54–06:30).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 7 Jun, 07:25–21:28 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:59 on Fri 7 Jun to 02:42 on Sat 8 Jun; harivasara ends at 07:25. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 21:28: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:29.
