Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Wed 10 Jun in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Wed 10 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:07 Tue to 23:12.
Ekadashi ended at 23:12 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Wed 10 Jun only, at 04:27: Wed 10 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:07 Tue, before it (02:51–04:27).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 11 Jun, 05:04–19:29 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:12 on Wed 10 Jun to 22:33 on Thu 11 Jun; harivasara ends at 05:02. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:27: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:27.
