Why is Apara Ekadashi on Wed 1 Jun in Sevan?
Apara Ekadashi is on Wed 1 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:09 Tue to 20:20.
Ekadashi ended at 20:20 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 1 Jun only, at 05:31: Wed 1 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:09 Tue, before it (03:55–05:31).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 2 Jun, 05:31–17:09
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:20 on Wed 1 Jun to 17:09 on Thu 2 Jun; harivasara ends at 01:32. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 2 Jun, 05:31. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30.
