Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Mon 15 Apr or Tue 16 Apr in Sevan?

Smarta · For Smartas, Kamada Ekadashi is on Mon 15 Apr: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Tue 16 Apr.

Dashami until 05:38, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:38 to 02:53 Tue.

Ekadashi ended at 02:53; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:38 Mon to 02:53.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 15 Apr only, at 06:22: Mon 15 Apr.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Mon 15 Apr Dashami lasts until 05:38, inside arunodaya (04:46–06:22), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 02:53, so Vaishnavas fast on Tue 16 Apr: Tue 16 Apr.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Tue 16 Apr, 08:08–19:39 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:53 on Tue 16 Apr to 23:56 on Tue 16 Apr; harivasara ends at 08:08. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:39: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:00.

Vaishnava · Wed 17 Apr, 06:19–19:40 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 23:56 Tue on Wed 17 Apr, in the night, before arunodaya (04:43): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:19, to sunset, 19:40, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

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
on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
