Why is Indira Ekadashi on Thu 11 Oct in Pāthardi?
Indira Ekadashi is on Thu 11 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:09 to 02:34 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 02:34; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:09 Thu to 02:34.
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 Thu 11 Oct only, at 06:22: Thu 11 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:09, before it (04:46–06:22).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 12 Oct, 08:14–18:08 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:34 on Fri 12 Oct to 01:12 on Sat 13 Oct; harivasara ends at 08:14. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:08: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43.
