Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 11 Jul in Olean?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 11 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 22:36 Mon to 00:19 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 00:19; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 11 Jul only, at 05:48: Tue 11 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:36 Mon, before it (04:12–05:48).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 12 Jul, 06:51–20:49 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:19 on Wed 12 Jul to 02:26 on Thu 13 Jul; harivasara ends at 06:51. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:49: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:48.
The rule
