Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Wed 21 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Wed 21 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:06 to 01:17 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 01:17; 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 Wed 21 Jul only, at 06:46: Wed 21 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:06, before it (05:10–06:46).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 22 Jul, 07:27–21:24 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:17 on Thu 22 Jul to 01:58 on Fri 23 Jul; harivasara ends at 07:27. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 21:24: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:43.
