Why is Apara Ekadashi on Fri 11 May in Sevan?

Apara Ekadashi is on Fri 11 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 21:58 Thu to 22:11.

Ekadashi ended at 22:11 Fri; 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 Fri 11 May only, at 05:47: Fri 11 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 21:58 Thu, before it (04:11–05:47).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 12 May, 05:46–20:06 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:11 on Fri 11 May to 21:36 on Sat 12 May; harivasara ends at 04:03. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 12 May, 05:46. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:06: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:38.

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).
