Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sat 22 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sat 22 Jul: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 05:31, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:31 to 07:37 Sat.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:31 Fri to 07:37.
Dwadashi: 07:37 Sat to 09:20, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 05:46 on Fri 21 Jul and 05:47 on Sat 22 Jul. Ekadashi (05:31 Fri 21 Jul to 07:37 Sat 22 Jul) and Dwadashi (07:37 Sat 22 Jul to 09:20 Sun 23 Jul) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Sat 22 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Fri 21 Jul Dashami lasts until 05:31, inside it (04:10–05:46); on Sat 22 Jul Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 23 Jul, 05:48–09:20
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 07:37 on Sat 22 Jul to 09:20 on Sun 23 Jul; harivasara ends at 14:03 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 23 Jul, 05:48.
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
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
