Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Thu 14 Apr in Sevan?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Thu 14 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:58 to 22:10.
Ekadashi ended at 22:10 Thu; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 14 Apr only, at 07:24: Thu 14 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:58, before it (05:48–07:24).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 15 Apr, 07:22–18:54
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:10 on Thu 14 Apr to 18:54 on Fri 15 Apr; harivasara ends at 03:21. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 15 Apr, 07:22. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:01.
The rule
