Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sun 12 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sun 12 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:12 to 03:31 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 03:31; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:12 Sun to 03:31.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 12 Jul only, at 06:39: Sun 12 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:12, before it (05:03–06:39).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 13 Jul, 10:03–21:30 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:31 on Mon 13 Jul to 05:38 on Tue 14 Jul; harivasara ends at 10:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 21:30: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:38, which here ends before harivasara does.
