Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Fri 26 Jul or Sat 27 Jul in Myjava?
Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Fri 26 Jul: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Sat 27 Jul.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 05:15. Ekadashi: 05:15 to 02:52 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 02:52; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:15 Fri to 02:52.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 05:15 on Fri 26 Jul, after that sunrise (05:15), and ends at 02:52 on Sat 27 Jul, before the next (05:16 Sat): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Fri 26 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Fri 26 Jul arunodaya (03:39–05:15) is Dashami. On Sat 27 Jul it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 02:52, then Dwadashi): Sat 27 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Sat 27 Jul, 08:07–20:34 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:52 on Sat 27 Jul to 23:51 on Sat 27 Jul; harivasara ends at 08:07. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:34: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:20.
Vaishnava · Sun 28 Jul, 05:17–20:33 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 23:51 Sat on Sun 28 Jul, in the night, before arunodaya (03:41): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:17, to sunset, 20:33, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
