Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 7 Jul or Wed 8 Jul in Pāthardi?
Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 7 Jul: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 8 Jul.
Dashami until 04:25, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:25 to 05:44 Wed.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:44; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:25 Tue to 05:44.
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 Tue 7 Jul only, at 05:57: Tue 7 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 7 Jul Dashami lasts until 04:25, inside arunodaya (04:21–05:57), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 05:44, so Vaishnavas fast on Wed 8 Jul: Wed 8 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 8 Jul, 12:09–19:11 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:44 on Wed 8 Jul to 07:25 on Thu 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 12:09. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:11: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:36, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Thu 9 Jul, 05:57–07:25
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:44 on Wed 8 Jul to 07:25 on Thu 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 12:09 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 9 Jul, 05:57.
The rule
Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
