Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Wed 15 Jun in Mapleton?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Wed 15 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:25 Tue to 23:16.
Ekadashi ended at 23:16 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 15 Jun only, at 04:56: Wed 15 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:25 Tue, before it (03:20–04:56).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 16 Jun, 05:20–19:57 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:16 on Wed 15 Jun to 23:32 on Thu 16 Jun; harivasara ends at 05:20. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:57: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:56.
