Why is Kamika Ekadashi on Sat 14 Jul in Sevan?
Kamika Ekadashi is on Sat 14 Jul: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:45 Fri to 02:16 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 02:16; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 23:45 Fri to 02:16.
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 Sat 14 Jul only, at 05:41: Sat 14 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:45 Fri, before it (04:05–05:41).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 15 Jul, 08:49–20:29 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:16 on Sun 15 Jul to 04:30 on Mon 16 Jul; harivasara ends at 08:49. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:29: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:39, which here ends before harivasara does.
