Why is Indira Ekadashi on Thu 11 Oct in Sevan?
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: 01:39 to 01:04 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 01:04; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 07:06: Thu 11 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:39, before it (05:30–07:06).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 12 Oct, 07:07–18:24 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:04 on Fri 12 Oct to 23:42 on Fri 12 Oct; harivasara ends at 06:44. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 12 Oct, 07:07. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:24: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:23.
