Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Fri 19 Jul or Sat 20 Jul in Mapleton?
Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Fri 19 Jul: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Sat 20 Jul.
Dashami until 06:11, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:11 to 04:51 Sat.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 04:51; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:11 Fri to 04:51.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−6). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 19 Jul only, at 06:13: Fri 19 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Fri 19 Jul Dashami lasts until 06:11, inside arunodaya (04:37–06:13), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 04:51, so Vaishnavas fast on Sat 20 Jul: Sat 20 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Sat 20 Jul, 10:36–20:51 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:51 on Sat 20 Jul to 03:52 on Sun 21 Jul; harivasara ends at 10:36. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:51: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:09, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sun 21 Jul, 06:14–20:50 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:52 on Sun 21 Jul, in the night, before arunodaya (04:38): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:14, to sunset, 20:50, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
