Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Sat 14 Feb or Sun 15 Feb in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Jaya Ekadashi is on Sat 14 Feb: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Sun 15 Feb.

Dashami until 06:56, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:56 to 05:42 Sun.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:42; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:56 Sat to 05:42.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 14 Feb only, at 06:58: Sat 14 Feb.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sat 14 Feb Dashami lasts until 06:56, inside arunodaya (05:22–06:58), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 05:42, so Vaishnavas fast on Sun 15 Feb: Sun 15 Feb.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Sun 15 Feb, 11:28–18:29 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:42 on Sun 15 Feb to 04:48 on Mon 16 Feb; harivasara ends at 11:28. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:29: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:16, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Mon 16 Feb, 06:57–18:29 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 04:48 on Mon 16 Feb, in the night, before arunodaya (05:21): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:57, to sunset, 18:29, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Magha Shukla Ekadashi

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta
Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava
Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast
on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
