Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 7 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 7 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:55 to 04:14 Wed.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 04:14; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:55 Tue to 04:14.
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 holds sunrise on Tue 7 Jul only, at 05:36: Tue 7 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:55, before it (04:00–05:36).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 8 Jul, 10:39–20:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:14 on Wed 8 Jul to 05:55 on Thu 9 Jul; harivasara ends at 10:39. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:32: 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.
