Why is Apara Ekadashi on Fri 12 May in Sevan?
Apara Ekadashi is on Fri 12 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:07 to 01:13 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 01:13; 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 12 May only, at 05:46: Fri 12 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:07, before it (04:10–05:46).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 13 May, 07:18–20:08 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:13 on Sat 13 May to 01:34 on Sun 14 May; harivasara ends at 07:18. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:08: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:37.
