Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Wed 30 May in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Wed 30 May: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 03:11, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:11 to 05:18 Wed.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:11 Tue to 05:18.
Dwadashi: 05:18 Wed to 07:42, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 04:33 on Tue 29 May and 04:32 on Wed 30 May. Ekadashi (03:11 Tue 29 May to 05:18 Wed 30 May) and Dwadashi (05:18 Wed 30 May to 07:42 Thu 31 May) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Wed 30 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Tue 29 May Dashami lasts until 03:11, inside it (02:57–04:33); on Wed 30 May Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 31 May, 04:32–07:42
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:18 on Wed 30 May to 07:42 on Thu 31 May; harivasara ends at 11:54 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 31 May, 04:32.
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).
