Why is Mokshada Ekadashi on Mon 27 Nov in Sevan?
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: 22:29 Sun to 00:48 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 00:48; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 08:00: Mon 27 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:29 Sun, before it (06:24–08:00).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 28 Nov, 08:01–17:34 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:48 on Tue 28 Nov to 02:44 on Wed 29 Nov; harivasara ends at 07:17. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 28 Nov, 08:01. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:34: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:55.
