Why is Apara Ekadashi on Fri 14 May in Pāthardi?

Apara Ekadashi is on Fri 14 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:13 to 03:44 Sat.

Ekadashi ended at 03:44; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:13 Fri to 03:44.

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

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 14 May only, at 05:54: Fri 14 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:13, before it (04:18–05:54).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 15 May, 10:00–18:56 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:44 on Sat 15 May to 04:47 on Sun 16 May; harivasara ends at 10:00. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:56: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30, which here ends before harivasara does.

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).
