Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 21 Jun, 05:52–19:09 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:50 on Fri 21 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:16): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:52, to sunset, 19:09, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

- 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).
