Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Thu 27 Jun in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Thu 27 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:16 Wed to 22:44.
Ekadashi ended at 22:44 Thu; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Thu 27 Jun only, at 05:44: Thu 27 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:16 Wed, before it (04:08–05:44).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 28 Jun, 05:44–19:01 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:44 on Thu 27 Jun to 00:55 on Sat 29 Jun; harivasara ends at 05:16. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 28 Jun, 05:44. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:01: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:24.
The rule
