Why is Jaya Ekadashi on Mon 14 Feb in Pāthardi?
Jaya Ekadashi is on Mon 14 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:57 to 00:58 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 00:58; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Mon 14 Feb only, at 06:58: Mon 14 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:57, before it (05:22–06:58).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 15 Feb, 06:57–18:28 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:58 on Tue 15 Feb to 23:10 on Tue 15 Feb; harivasara ends at 06:31. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 15 Feb, 06:57. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:28: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:16.
The rule
Magha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
