Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Thu 29 Jun in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Thu 29 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:19 to 02:42 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 02:42; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:19 Thu to 02:42.
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 Thu 29 Jun only, at 05:54: Thu 29 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:19, before it (04:18–05:54).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 30 Jun, 08:21–19:11 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:42 on Fri 30 Jun to 01:17 on Sat 1 Jul; harivasara ends at 08:21. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:11: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:33.
The rule

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
