Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Thu 16 Jun in Diffa?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Thu 16 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 05:25. Ekadashi: 05:25 to 05:16 Thu.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:25 Wed to 05:16.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 16 Jun only, at 03:42: Thu 16 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 05:25 Wed, before it (02:06–03:42).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 17 Jun, 05:42–07:32
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:16 on Thu 16 Jun to 05:32 on Fri 17 Jun; harivasara ends at 11:20 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 17 Jun, 03:42.
The rule
Jyeshtha Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
