Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 29 May in Codcod?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 29 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:31 Thu to 21:37.
Ekadashi ended at 21:37 Fri; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 29 May only, at 05:24: Fri 29 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:31 Thu, before it (03:48–05:24).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 30 May, 05:24–18:05 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:37 on Fri 29 May to 23:13 on Sat 30 May; harivasara ends at 04:01. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 30 May, 05:24. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:05: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:56.
