Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Wed 1 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Wed 1 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:50 Tue to 17:29.
Ekadashi ended at 17:29 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 sunrise on Wed 1 Jul only, at 05:55: Wed 1 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:50 Tue, before it (04:19–05:55).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 2 Jul, 05:55–15:17
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:29 on Wed 1 Jul to 15:17 on Thu 2 Jul; harivasara ends at 22:56 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 2 Jul, 05:55. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:34.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
