Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sat 8 Jul in Davinópolis?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sat 8 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:44 to 21:59.
Ekadashi ended at 21:59 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 8 Jul only, at 06:20: Sat 8 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:44, before it (04:44–06:20).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 9 Jul, 06:20–18:09 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:59 on Sat 8 Jul to 18:47 on Sun 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 03:11. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 9 Jul, 06:20. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:09: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
The rule
