Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Thu 12 Jul or Fri 13 Jul in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Thu 12 Jul: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 13 Jul.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 05:55. Ekadashi: 05:55 to 03:08 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 03:08; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:55 Thu to 03:08.
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 begins at 05:55 on Thu 12 Jul, after that sunrise (05:40), and ends at 03:08 on Fri 13 Jul, before the next (05:41 Fri): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Thu 12 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 12 Jul arunodaya (04:04–05:40) is Dashami. On Fri 13 Jul it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 03:08, then Dwadashi): Fri 13 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Fri 13 Jul, 08:21–20:30 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:08 on Fri 13 Jul to 23:58 on Fri 13 Jul; harivasara ends at 08:21. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:30: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:38.
Vaishnava · Sat 14 Jul, 05:41–20:29 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 23:58 Fri on Sat 14 Jul, in the night, before arunodaya (04:05): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:41, to sunset, 20:29, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
