Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sun 5 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sun 5 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 17:32 Sat to 19:19.
Ekadashi ended at 19:19 Sun; 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 Sun 5 Jul only, at 06:35: Sun 5 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 17:32 Sat, before it (04:59–06:35).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 6 Jul, 06:35–20:35
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 19:19 on Sun 5 Jul to 20:35 on Mon 6 Jul; harivasara ends at 01:38. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 6 Jul, 06:35. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:35.
The rule
