Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Fri 11 Apr in Sevan?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Fri 11 Apr: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 06:27, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:27 to 08:30 Fri.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:27 Thu to 08:30.
Dwadashi: 08:30 Fri to 10:06, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 06:29 on Thu 10 Apr and 06:28 on Fri 11 Apr. Ekadashi (06:27 Thu 10 Apr to 08:30 Fri 11 Apr) and Dwadashi (08:30 Fri 11 Apr to 10:06 Sat 12 Apr) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Fri 11 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Thu 10 Apr Dashami lasts until 06:27, inside it (04:53–06:29); on Fri 11 Apr Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 12 Apr, 06:26–10:06
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 08:30 on Fri 11 Apr to 10:06 on Sat 12 Apr; harivasara ends at 14:54 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 12 Apr, 06:26.
The rule
Chaitra Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
