Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Wed 11 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Wed 11 Jul: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 05:20, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:20 to 07:35 Wed.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:20 Tue to 07:35.
Dwadashi: 07:35 Wed to 10:04, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 05:57 on Tue 10 Jul and 05:58 on Wed 11 Jul. Ekadashi (05:20 Tue 10 Jul to 07:35 Wed 11 Jul) and Dwadashi (07:35 Wed 11 Jul to 10:04 Thu 12 Jul) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Wed 11 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Tue 10 Jul Dashami lasts until 05:20, inside it (04:21–05:57); on Wed 11 Jul Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 12 Jul, 05:58–10:04
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 07:35 on Wed 11 Jul to 10:04 on Thu 12 Jul; harivasara ends at 14:12 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 12 Jul, 05:58.
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).
