Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Tue 10 Jun or Wed 11 Jun in Sevan?

Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Tue 10 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 11 Jun.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:16. Ekadashi: 08:16 to 05:26 Wed.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:26; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:16 Tue to 05:26.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:16 on Tue 10 Jun, after that sunrise (06:29), and ends at 05:26 on Wed 11 Jun, before the next (06:29 Wed): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Tue 10 Jun.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 10 Jun arunodaya (04:53–06:29) is Dashami. On Wed 11 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:26, then Dwadashi): Wed 11 Jun.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Wed 11 Jun, 10:39–21:30 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:26 on Wed 11 Jun to 02:17 on Thu 12 Jun; harivasara ends at 10:39. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 21:30: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:29, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Thu 12 Jun, 06:29–21:30 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 02:17 on Thu 12 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:53): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:29, to sunset, 21:30, 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).
