Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 8 Jul in Myjava?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 8 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:27 to 01:10 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 01:10; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:27 Tue to 01:10.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 8 Jul only, at 04:55: Tue 8 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:27, before it (03:19–04:55).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 9 Jul, 06:39–20:52 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:10 on Wed 9 Jul to 23:05 on Wed 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 06:39. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:52: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:07.
