Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Wed 15 Jun in Ipameri?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Wed 15 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 22:56 Tue to 01:24 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 01:24; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 15 Jun only, at 06:41: Wed 15 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:56 Tue, before it (05:05–06:41).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 16 Jun, 07:58–17:45 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:24 on Thu 16 Jun to 03:39 on Fri 17 Jun; harivasara ends at 07:58. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:45: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:54.
