Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sun 2 Jul or Mon 3 Jul in Progress?
Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sun 2 Jul: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 3 Jul.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 04:44. Ekadashi: 04:44 to 03:34 Mon.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 03:34; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:44 Sun to 03:34.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+9). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 04:44 on Sun 2 Jul, after that sunrise (04:18), and ends at 03:34 on Mon 3 Jul, before the next (04:19 Mon): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Sun 2 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 2 Jul arunodaya (02:42–04:18) is Dashami. On Mon 3 Jul it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 03:34, then Dwadashi): Mon 3 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Mon 3 Jul, 09:22–20:31 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:34 on Mon 3 Jul to 02:47 on Tue 4 Jul; harivasara ends at 09:22. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:31: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:33, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Tue 4 Jul, 02:43–02:47 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 02:47 on Tue 4 Jul, after arunodaya begins (02:43) and before sunrise (04:19). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: Tithika’s convention.
The rule
