Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sun 19 Jun or Mon 20 Jun in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sun 19 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 20 Jun.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 06:20. Ekadashi: 06:20 to 03:33 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 03:33; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:20 Sun to 03:33.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 06:20 on Sun 19 Jun, after that sunrise (05:29), and ends at 03:33 on Mon 20 Jun, before the next (05:29 Mon): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Sun 19 Jun.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 19 Jun arunodaya (03:53–05:29) is Dashami. On Mon 20 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 03:33, then Dwadashi): Mon 20 Jun.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Mon 20 Jun, 08:48–20:33 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:33 on Mon 20 Jun to 00:34 on Tue 21 Jun; harivasara ends at 08:48. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:33: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Tue 21 Jun, 05:29–20:33 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 00:34 on Tue 21 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (03:53): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:29, to sunset, 20:33, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
