Why is Mokshada Ekadashi on Thu 9 Dec in Pāthardi?
Mokshada Ekadashi is on Thu 9 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:59 to 03:20 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 03:20; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:59 Thu to 03:20.
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 Thu 9 Dec only, at 06:50: Thu 9 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:59, before it (05:14–06:50).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 10 Dec, 09:13–17:51 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:20 on Fri 10 Dec to 02:53 on Sat 11 Dec; harivasara ends at 09:13. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:51: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:03, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule

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