Why is Indira Ekadashi on Tue 27 Sep or Wed 28 Sep in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Indira Ekadashi is on Tue 27 Sep: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 28 Sep.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 06:42. Ekadashi: 06:42 to 03:48 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 03:48; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:42 Tue to 03:48.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 06:42 on Tue 27 Sep, after that sunrise (05:49), and ends at 03:48 on Wed 28 Sep, before the next (05:50 Wed): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Tue 27 Sep.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 27 Sep arunodaya (04:13–05:49) is Dashami. On Wed 28 Sep it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 03:48, then Dwadashi): Wed 28 Sep.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 28 Sep, 09:04–17:48 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:48 on Wed 28 Sep to 00:42 on Thu 29 Sep; harivasara ends at 09:02. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:13, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Thu 29 Sep, 05:53–17:46 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 00:42 on Thu 29 Sep, in the night, before arunodaya (04:15): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:51, to sunset, 17:44, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
