Why is Mohini Ekadashi on Thu 3 May or Fri 4 May in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Mohini Ekadashi is on Thu 3 May: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 4 May.

Dashami until 05:00, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:00 to 02:42 Fri.

Ekadashi ended at 02:42; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:00 Thu to 02:42.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 3 May only, at 06:00: Thu 3 May.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 3 May Dashami lasts until 05:00, inside arunodaya (04:24–06:00), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 02:42, so Vaishnavas fast on Fri 4 May: Fri 4 May.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Fri 4 May, 08:09–18:52 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:42 on Fri 4 May to 00:29 on Sat 5 May; harivasara ends at 08:09. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:52: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:34.

Vaishnava · Sat 5 May, 05:58–18:53 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 00:29 on Sat 5 May, in the night, before arunodaya (04:22): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:58, to sunset, 18:53, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Vaishakha Shukla Ekadashi

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta
Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
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).
