Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Fri 18 Jul in Pāthardi?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Fri 18 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:15 to 04:45 Sat.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 04:45; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:15 Fri to 04:45.
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 18 Jul only, at 06:01: Fri 18 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:15, before it (04:25–06:01).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 19 Jul, 11:21–19:09 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:45 on Sat 19 Jul to 07:09 on Sun 20 Jul; harivasara ends at 11:21. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:09: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:39, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
