Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Thu 17 Jun in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Thu 17 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 16:41 Wed to 15:44.
Ekadashi ended at 15:44 Thu; 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 Thu 17 Jun only, at 04:28: Thu 17 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 16:41 Wed, before it (02:52–04:28).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 18 Jun, 04:28–15:11
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:44 on Thu 17 Jun to 15:11 on Fri 18 Jun; harivasara ends at 21:36 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 18 Jun, 04:28. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:29.
The rule
