Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Fri 20 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Fri 20 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:58 Thu to 21:37.
Ekadashi ended at 21:37 Fri; 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 Fri 20 Jul only, at 06:01: Fri 20 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:58 Thu, before it (04:25–06:01).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 21 Jul, 06:02–18:40
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:37 on Fri 20 Jul to 18:40 on Sat 21 Jul; harivasara ends at 02:53. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 21 Jul, 06:02. 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.
