Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Mon 30 Mar in Ipameri?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Mon 30 Mar: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:40 Sun to 23:03.
Ekadashi ended at 23:03 Mon; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 30 Mar only, at 06:18: Mon 30 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:40 Sun, before it (04:42–06:18).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 31 Mar, 06:18–18:14 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:03 on Mon 30 Mar to 01:39 on Wed 1 Apr; harivasara ends at 05:42. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 31 Mar, 06:18. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:14: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
