Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Mon 15 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Mon 15 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 17:01 Sun to 15:34.
Ekadashi ended at 15:34 Mon; 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 Mon 15 Jul only, at 04:41: Mon 15 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 17:01 Sun, before it (03:05–04:41).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 16 Jul, 04:42–14:22
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:34 on Mon 15 Jul to 14:22 on Tue 16 Jul; harivasara ends at 21:16 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 16 Jul, 04:42. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:39.
The rule

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
