Why is Mokshada Ekadashi on Mon 27 Nov in Pāthardi?
Mokshada Ekadashi is on Mon 27 Nov: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:59 Sun to 02:18 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 02:18; 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 Mon 27 Nov only, at 06:44: Mon 27 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:59 Sun, before it (05:08–06:44).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 28 Nov, 08:47–17:49 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:18 on Tue 28 Nov to 04:14 on Wed 29 Nov; harivasara ends at 08:47. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:49: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:57.
