Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sat 21 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sat 21 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:13 to 00:15 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 00:15; 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 Sat 21 Jul only, at 06:02: Sat 21 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:13, before it (04:26–06:02).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 22 Jul, 06:02–19:08 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:15 on Sun 22 Jul to 22:29 on Sun 22 Jul; harivasara ends at 05:48. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 22 Jul, 06:02. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:08: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:39.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
