Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sun 31 May in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sun 31 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:14 Sat to 01:36 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 01:36; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 23:14 Sat to 01:36.
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 Sun 31 May only, at 04:32: Sun 31 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:14 Sat, before it (02:56–04:32).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 1 Jun, 08:09–19:23 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:36 on Mon 1 Jun to 03:48 on Tue 2 Jun; harivasara ends at 08:09. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:23: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:30, which here ends before harivasara does.
