Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sun 7 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sun 7 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:03 to 00:36 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 00:36; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 7 Jul only, at 05:36: Sun 7 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:03, before it (04:00–05:36).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 8 Jul, 06:36–20:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:36 on Mon 8 Jul to 00:34 on Tue 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 06:36. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:32: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:35.
