Why is Devshayani Ekadashi on Tue 13 Jul in Cuenca?
Devshayani Ekadashi is on Tue 13 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:39 to 02:40 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 02:40; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:39 Tue to 02:40.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 13 Jul only, at 06:22: Tue 13 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:39, before it (04:46–06:22).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 14 Jul, 09:03–18:20 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:40 on Wed 14 Jul to 04:11 on Thu 15 Jul; harivasara ends at 09:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:20: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:46, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
