Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Mon 17 Jun in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Mon 17 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:58 Sun to 22:21.
Ekadashi ended at 22:21 Mon; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Mon 17 Jun only, at 04:28: Mon 17 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:58 Sun, before it (02:52–04:28).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 18 Jun, 04:49–19:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:21 on Mon 17 Jun to 00:13 on Wed 19 Jun; harivasara ends at 04:49. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:32: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:29.
