Why is Mokshada Ekadashi on Thu 5 Dec in Pāthardi?
Mokshada Ekadashi is on Thu 5 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 17:18 Wed to 18:44.
Ekadashi ended at 18:44 Thu; 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 Thu 5 Dec only, at 06:48: Thu 5 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 17:18 Wed, before it (05:12–06:48).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 6 Dec, 06:49–17:50 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:44 on Thu 5 Dec to 20:40 on Fri 6 Dec; harivasara ends at 01:13. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 6 Dec, 06:49. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:50: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:01.
The rule
