Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Sat 31 Jan in Sevan?
Jaya Ekadashi is on Sat 31 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:23 to 22:47.
Ekadashi ended at 22:47 Sat; 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 Sat 31 Jan only, at 07:10: Sat 31 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:23, before it (05:34–07:10).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 1 Feb, 07:11–17:16 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:47 on Sat 31 Jan to 19:59 on Sun 1 Feb; harivasara ends at 04:05. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 1 Feb, 07:09. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:14: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:10.
