Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Thu 31 May or Fri 1 Jun in Saatlı?
Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Thu 31 May: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 1 Jun.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:48. Ekadashi: 08:48 to 06:02 Fri.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 06:02; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:48 Thu to 06:02.
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 begins at 08:48 on Thu 31 May, after that sunrise (06:20), and ends at 06:02 on Fri 1 Jun, before the next (06:19 Fri): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Thu 31 May.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 31 May arunodaya (04:44–06:20) is Dashami. On Fri 1 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 06:02, then Dwadashi): Fri 1 Jun.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Fri 1 Jun, 11:15–21:09 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:02 on Fri 1 Jun to 02:52 on Sat 2 Jun; harivasara ends at 11:15. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 21:09: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:17, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sat 2 Jun, 06:19–21:09 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 02:52 on Sat 2 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:43): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:19, to sunset, 21:09, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
