Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Sun 12 Apr in Pāthardi?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Sun 12 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 16:23 Sat to 18:37.
Ekadashi ended at 18:37 Sun; 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 Sun 12 Apr only, at 06:14: Sun 12 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 16:23 Sat, before it (04:38–06:14).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 13 Apr, 06:13–18:46 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:37 on Sun 12 Apr to 20:23 on Mon 13 Apr; harivasara ends at 01:03. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 13 Apr, 06:13. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44.
The rule
