Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Sun 4 Feb in Sevan?
Jaya Ekadashi is on Sun 4 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:13 to 00:53 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 00:53; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 4 Feb only, at 08:06: Sun 4 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:13, before it (06:30–08:06).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 5 Feb, 08:05–18:22 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:53 on Mon 5 Feb to 21:59 on Mon 5 Feb; harivasara ends at 06:09. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 5 Feb, 08:05. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:22: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:09.
