Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 4 Jul in Myjava?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 4 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 18:45 Mon to 20:59.
Ekadashi ended at 20:59 Tue; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 4 Jul only, at 04:52: Tue 4 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 18:45 Mon, before it (03:16–04:52).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 5 Jul, 04:53–20:54 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:59 on Tue 4 Jul to 23:22 on Wed 5 Jul; harivasara ends at 03:35. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 5 Jul, 04:53. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:54: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:05.
The rule
