Why is Mokshada Ekadashi on Sun 23 Dec in Ipameri?
Mokshada Ekadashi is on Sun 23 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:19 Sat to 21:49.
Ekadashi ended at 21:49 Sun; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 23 Dec only, at 06:36: Sun 23 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:19 Sat, before it (05:00–06:36).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 24 Dec, 06:36–19:48 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:49 on Sun 23 Dec to 00:32 on Tue 25 Dec; harivasara ends at 04:30. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 24 Dec, 06:36. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:48: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:15.
