Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Sun 12 Jul or Mon 13 Jul in Pāthardi?
Smarta · For Smartas, Devshayani Ekadashi is on Sun 12 Jul: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 13 Jul.
Dashami until 04:25, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:25 to 03:06 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 03:06; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:25 Sun to 03:06.
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 Sun 12 Jul only, at 05:59: Sun 12 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 12 Jul Dashami lasts until 04:25, inside arunodaya (04:23–05:59), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 03:06, so Vaishnavas fast on Mon 13 Jul: Mon 13 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Mon 13 Jul, 08:35–19:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:06 on Mon 13 Jul to 01:04 on Tue 14 Jul; harivasara ends at 08:35. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:37.
Vaishnava · Tue 14 Jul, 05:59–19:10 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 01:04 on Tue 14 Jul, in the night, before arunodaya (04:23): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:59, to sunset, 19:10, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule

- 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).
