Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sun 8 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sun 8 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:37 Sat to 20:22.
Ekadashi ended at 20:22 Sun; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 8 Jul only, at 04:34: Sun 8 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:37 Sat, before it (02:58–04:34).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 9 Jul, 04:37–19:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:22 on Sun 8 Jul to 20:23 on Mon 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 02:22. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 9 Jul, 04:35. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:30: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:34.
The rule
