Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sat 26 Jun in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sat 26 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:35 to 04:31 Sun.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 04:31; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:35 Sat to 04:31.
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 Sat 26 Jun only, at 05:53: Sat 26 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:35, before it (04:17–05:53).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 27 Jun, 11:05–19:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:31 on Sun 27 Jun to 06:47 on Mon 28 Jun; harivasara ends at 11:05. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:32, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
