Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Thu 6 Apr in Ipameri?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Thu 6 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:45 to 00:25 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 00:25; 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 Thu 6 Apr only, at 06:20: Thu 6 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:45, before it (04:44–06:20).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 7 Apr, 06:26–18:09 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:25 on Fri 7 Apr to 00:30 on Sat 8 Apr; harivasara ends at 06:26. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:09: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
