Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Wed 10 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Wed 10 Jul: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:36 to 06:08 Wed.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:36 Tue to 06:08.
Dwadashi: 06:08 Wed to 08:41, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 05:57 on Tue 9 Jul and 05:57 on Wed 10 Jul. Ekadashi (03:36 Tue 9 Jul to 06:08 Wed 10 Jul) and Dwadashi (06:08 Wed 10 Jul to 08:41 Thu 11 Jul) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Wed 10 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: over two sunrises, they too fast on the second.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 11 Jul, 05:57–08:41
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:08 on Wed 10 Jul to 08:41 on Thu 11 Jul; harivasara ends at 12:46 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 11 Jul, 05:57.
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
