Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Wed 6 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Wed 6 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:27 Tue to 18:32.
Ekadashi ended at 18:32 Wed; 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 Wed 6 Jul only, at 05:56: Wed 6 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:27 Tue, before it (04:20–05:56).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 7 Jul, 05:56–16:47
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:32 on Wed 6 Jul to 16:47 on Thu 7 Jul; harivasara ends at 00:06. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 7 Jul, 05:56. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:35.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
