Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Fri 3 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Fri 3 Jul: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 05:17, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:17 to 06:27 Fri.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:17 Thu to 06:27.
Dwadashi: 06:27 Fri to 08:04, longer than its day: it grows too.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 05:55 on Thu 2 Jul and 05:55 on Fri 3 Jul. Ekadashi (05:17 Thu 2 Jul to 06:27 Fri 3 Jul) and Dwadashi (06:27 Fri 3 Jul to 08:04 Sat 4 Jul) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Fri 3 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Thu 2 Jul Dashami lasts until 05:17, inside it (04:19–05:55); on Fri 3 Jul Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 4 Jul, 05:55–08:04
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:27 on Fri 3 Jul to 08:04 on Sat 4 Jul; harivasara ends at 12:51 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 4 Jul, 05:55.
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).
