Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Tue 12 Apr in Sevan?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Tue 12 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:00 to 03:32 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 03:32; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:00 Tue to 03:32.
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 sunrise on Tue 12 Apr only, at 06:26: Tue 12 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:00, before it (04:50–06:26).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 13 Apr, 09:29–19:36 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:32 on Wed 13 Apr to 03:20 on Thu 14 Apr; harivasara ends at 09:29. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:36: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:03, which here ends before harivasara does.
