Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 5 Jun in Davinópolis?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 5 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 16:40 Thu to 19:06.
Ekadashi ended at 19:06 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 5 Jun only, at 06:13: Fri 5 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 16:40 Thu, before it (04:37–06:13).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 6 Jun, 06:13–18:02 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 19:06 on Fri 5 Jun to 21:17 on Sat 6 Jun; harivasara ends at 01:39. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 6 Jun, 06:13. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:02: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:35.
