Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Thu 2 Jul or Fri 3 Jul in Baoding?

Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Thu 2 Jul: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 3 Jul.

Dashami until 04:04, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:04 to 02:03 Fri.

Ekadashi ended at 02:03; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:04 Thu to 02:03.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 2 Jul only, at 04:56: Thu 2 Jul.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 2 Jul Dashami lasts until 04:04, inside arunodaya (03:20–04:56), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 02:03, so Vaishnavas fast on Fri 3 Jul: Fri 3 Jul.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Fri 3 Jul, 07:23–19:46 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:03 on Fri 3 Jul to 23:23 on Fri 3 Jul; harivasara ends at 07:23. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:54.

Vaishnava · Sat 4 Jul, 04:57–19:46 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 23:23 Fri on Sat 4 Jul, in the night, before arunodaya (03:21): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 04:57, to sunset, 19:46, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi

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).
