Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Mon 17 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Mon 17 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:06 to 02:05 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 02:05; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:06 Mon to 02:05.
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 Mon 17 Jul only, at 06:00: Mon 17 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 04:06, before it (04:24–06:00).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 18 Jul, 07:37–19:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:05 on Tue 18 Jul to 00:13 on Wed 19 Jul; harivasara ends at 07:37. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:38.
The rule

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