Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 5 Jun in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 5 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:06 to 02:05 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 02:05; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:06 Fri to 02:05.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 5 Jun only, at 04:28: Fri 5 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:06, before it (02:52–04:28).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 6 Jun, 08:14–19:26 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:05 on Sat 6 Jun to 02:31 on Sun 7 Jun; harivasara ends at 08:12. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:24: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:27, which here ends before harivasara does.
