Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Mon 25 Jul in Sevan?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Mon 25 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:08 Sun to 23:15.
Ekadashi ended at 23:15 Mon; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Mon 25 Jul only, at 05:51: Mon 25 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:08 Sun, before it (04:15–05:51).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 26 Jul, 05:52–20:20 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:15 on Mon 25 Jul to 23:52 on Tue 26 Jul; harivasara ends at 05:25. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 26 Jul, 05:52. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:20: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:45.
