Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Wed 12 Feb in Sevan?
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: 23:07 Tue to 01:32 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 01:32; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). 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 06:57: Wed 12 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:07 Tue, before it (05:21–06:57).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 13 Feb, 08:14–17:30 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:32 on Thu 13 Feb to 04:12 on Fri 14 Feb; harivasara ends at 08:12. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:28: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:02.
