Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Wed 12 Feb in Pāthardi?
Jaya Ekadashi is on Wed 12 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:39 to 04:04 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 04:04; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:39 Wed to 04:04.
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 Wed 12 Feb only, at 07:00: Wed 12 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:39, before it (05:24–07:00).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 13 Feb, 10:44–18:27 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:04 on Thu 13 Feb to 06:44 on Fri 14 Feb; harivasara ends at 10:44. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:27: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:17, which here ends before harivasara does.
