Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sat 14 Jun in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sat 14 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:40 to 00:59 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 00:59; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:40 Sat to 00:59.
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 Sat 14 Jun only, at 04:26: Sat 14 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:40, before it (02:50–04:26).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 15 Jun, 06:38–19:31 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:59 on Sun 15 Jun to 23:29 on Sun 15 Jun; harivasara ends at 06:36. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:29: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:27.
