Why is Mohini Ekadashi on Fri 16 May in Pāthardi?
Mohini Ekadashi is on Fri 16 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:37 Thu to 21:14.
Ekadashi ended at 21:14 Fri; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 16 May only, at 05:54: Fri 16 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:37 Thu, before it (04:18–05:54).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 17 May, 05:53–18:53
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:14 on Fri 16 May to 18:53 on Sat 17 May; harivasara ends at 02:39. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 17 May, 05:53. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30.
The rule
Vaishakha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
