Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sat 21 Jul in Sevan?
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: 00:43 to 22:45.
Ekadashi ended at 22:45 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 05:47: Sat 21 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:43, before it (04:11–05:47).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 22 Jul, 05:48–20:24 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:45 on Sat 21 Jul to 20:59 on Sun 22 Jul; harivasara ends at 04:18. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 22 Jul, 05:48. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:24: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43.
