Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sat 24 Jun or Sun 25 Jun in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sat 24 Jun: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Sun 25 Jun.

Dashami until 04:23, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:23 to 03:41 Sun.

Ekadashi ended at 03:41; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:23 Sat to 03:41.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 24 Jun only, at 05:52: Sat 24 Jun.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sat 24 Jun Dashami lasts until 04:23, inside arunodaya (04:16–05:52), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 03:41, so Vaishnavas fast on Sun 25 Jun: Sun 25 Jun.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Sun 25 Jun, 09:19–19:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:41 on Sun 25 Jun to 02:11 on Mon 26 Jun; harivasara ends at 09:19. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:32, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Mon 26 Jun, 05:53–19:10 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 02:11 on Mon 26 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:17): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:53, to sunset, 19:10, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Jyeshtha Shukla Ekadashi

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta
Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava
Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast
on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
