Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 2 Jun in Pāthardi?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 2 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:10 to 01:38 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 01:38; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 holds sunrise on Fri 2 Jun only, at 06:50: Fri 2 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:10, before it (05:14–06:50).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 3 Jun, 07:51–20:03 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:38 on Sat 3 Jun to 02:30 on Sun 4 Jun; harivasara ends at 07:51. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:03: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:29.
