Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 7 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 7 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:09 to 22:09.
Ekadashi ended at 22:09 Tue; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Tue 7 Jul only, at 06:36: Tue 7 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:09, before it (05:00–06:36).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 8 Jul, 06:36–19:26
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:09 on Tue 7 Jul to 19:26 on Wed 8 Jul; harivasara ends at 03:28. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 8 Jul, 06:36. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:35.
