Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Fri 17 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Fri 17 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:12 to 03:31 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 03:31; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:12 Fri to 03:31.
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 17 Jul only, at 06:00: Fri 17 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:12, before it (04:24–06:00).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 18 Jul, 10:02–19:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:31 on Sat 18 Jul to 05:32 on Sun 19 Jul; harivasara ends at 10:02. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:38, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
