Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sat 18 Jun in Sevan?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sat 18 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:02 Fri to 19:17.
Ekadashi ended at 19:17 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 18 Jun only, at 06:29: Sat 18 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:02 Fri, before it (04:53–06:29).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 19 Jun, 06:29–17:43
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 19:17 on Sat 18 Jun to 17:43 on Sun 19 Jun; harivasara ends at 00:53. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 19 Jun, 06:29. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:30.
The rule
