Why is Mohini Ekadashi on Sat 29 Apr or Sun 30 Apr in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Mohini Ekadashi is on Sat 29 Apr: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Sun 30 Apr.
Dashami until 03:35, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:35 to 01:17 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 01:17; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:35 Sat to 01:17.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 29 Apr only, at 05:03: Sat 29 Apr.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sat 29 Apr Dashami lasts until 03:35, inside arunodaya (03:27–05:03), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 01:17, so Vaishnavas fast on Sun 30 Apr: Sun 30 Apr.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Sun 30 Apr, 06:44–18:53 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:17 on Sun 30 Apr to 23:06 on Sun 30 Apr; harivasara ends at 06:44. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:53: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:48.
Vaishnava · Mon 1 May, 05:00–18:54 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 23:06 Sun on Mon 1 May, in the night, before arunodaya (03:24): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:00, to sunset, 18:54, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
