Why is Apara Ekadashi on Mon 15 May in Pāthardi?

Apara Ekadashi is on Mon 15 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:46 to 01:03 Tue.

Ekadashi ended at 01:03; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:46 Mon to 01:03.

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 Mon 15 May only, at 05:54: Mon 15 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:46, before it (04:18–05:54).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 16 May, 06:41–18:57 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:03 on Tue 16 May to 23:36 on Tue 16 May; harivasara ends at 06:41. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:57: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30.

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).
