Why is Indira Ekadashi on Sat 2 Oct in Chahārbāgh?
Indira Ekadashi is on Sat 2 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 21:04 Fri to 21:11.
Ekadashi ended at 21:11 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 2 Oct only, at 06:02: Sat 2 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 21:04 Fri, before it (04:26–06:02).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 3 Oct, 06:03–17:47 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:11 on Sat 2 Oct to 20:30 on Sun 3 Oct; harivasara ends at 03:00. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 3 Oct, 06:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:47: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:24.
