Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Tue 13 Apr or Wed 14 Apr in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Kamada Ekadashi is on Tue 13 Apr: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 14 Apr.
Dashami until 04:56, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:56 to 06:15 Wed.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 06:15; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:56 Tue to 06:15.
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 13 Apr only, at 06:24: Tue 13 Apr.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 13 Apr Dashami lasts until 04:56, inside arunodaya (04:48–06:24), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 06:15, so Vaishnavas fast on Wed 14 Apr: Wed 14 Apr.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 14 Apr, 12:24–19:38 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:15 on Wed 14 Apr to 06:54 on Thu 15 Apr; harivasara ends at 12:24. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:38: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:01, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Thu 15 Apr, 06:21–06:54
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:15 on Wed 14 Apr to 06:54 on Thu 15 Apr; harivasara ends at 12:24 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 15 Apr, 06:21.
The rule
Chaitra Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

- 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).
