Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 10 Jul in Myjava?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 10 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:50 to 03:05 Wed.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 03:05; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 00:50 Tue to 03:05.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 10 Jul only, at 03:57: Tue 10 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:50, before it (02:21–03:57).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 11 Jul, 09:42–19:51 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:05 on Wed 11 Jul to 05:34 on Thu 12 Jul; harivasara ends at 09:42. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:51: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:08, which here ends before harivasara does.
