Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 30 May in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 30 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 17:21 Thu to 17:26.
Ekadashi ended at 17:26 Fri; 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 Fri 30 May only, at 04:33: Fri 30 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 17:21 Thu, before it (02:57–04:33).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 31 May, 04:32–18:01
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:26 on Fri 30 May to 18:01 on Sat 31 May; harivasara ends at 23:35 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 31 May, 04:32. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:30.
