Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sat 23 Jun in Myjava?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sat 23 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:49 Fri to 00:22 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 00:22; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 23 Jun only, at 04:46: Sat 23 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:49 Fri, before it (03:10–04:46).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 24 Jun, 06:38–20:56 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:22 on Sun 24 Jun to 01:24 on Mon 25 Jun; harivasara ends at 06:38. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:56: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:00.
