Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Wed 23 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Wed 23 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:36 to 04:16 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 04:16; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:36 Wed to 04:16.
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 Wed 23 Jul only, at 06:02: Wed 23 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:36, before it (04:26–06:02).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 24 Jul, 10:16–19:08 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:16 on Thu 24 Jul to 04:14 on Fri 25 Jul; harivasara ends at 10:16. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:08: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:39, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
