Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sun 24 Jun or Mon 25 Jun in Pāthardi?
Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sun 24 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 25 Jun.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:28.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:41; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:28 Sun to 05:41.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:28 on Sun 24 Jun, after that sunrise (05:52), and ends at 05:41 on Mon 25 Jun, before the next (05:52 Mon): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Sun 24 Jun.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 24 Jun arunodaya (04:16–05:52) is Dashami. On Mon 25 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:41, then Dwadashi): Mon 25 Jun.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Mon 25 Jun, 10:58–19:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:41 on Mon 25 Jun to 02:47 on Tue 26 Jun; harivasara ends at 10:58. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:32, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Tue 26 Jun, 05:52–19:10 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 02:47 on Tue 26 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:16): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:52, to sunset, 19:10, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
