Why is Indira Ekadashi on Wed 2 Oct or Thu 3 Oct in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Indira Ekadashi is on Wed 2 Oct: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Thu 3 Oct.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:13. Ekadashi: 08:13 to 06:04 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 06:04; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:13 Wed to 06:04.
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 begins at 08:13 on Wed 2 Oct, after that sunrise (07:56), and ends at 06:04 on Thu 3 Oct, before the next (07:58 Thu): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Wed 2 Oct.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Wed 2 Oct arunodaya (06:20–07:56) is Dashami. On Thu 3 Oct it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 06:04, then Dwadashi): Thu 3 Oct.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Thu 3 Oct, 11:22–19:39 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:04 on Thu 3 Oct to 03:14 on Fri 4 Oct; harivasara ends at 11:22. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:39: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:18, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Fri 4 Oct, 07:59–19:37 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:14 on Fri 4 Oct, in the night, before arunodaya (06:23): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 07:59, to sunset, 19:37, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
