Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Sat 23 Feb in Pāthardi?
Jaya Ekadashi is on Sat 23 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:08 to 03:31 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 03:31; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:08 Sat to 03:31.
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 Sat 23 Feb only, at 06:53: Sat 23 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 05:08, before it (05:17–06:53).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 24 Feb, 08:55–18:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:31 on Sun 24 Feb to 01:08 on Mon 25 Feb; harivasara ends at 08:55. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:32: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:12.
The rule
Magha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
