Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sun 20 Jun or Mon 21 Jun in Bothell?

Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sun 20 Jun: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 21 Jun.

Dashami until 03:51, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:51 to 01:02 Mon.

Ekadashi ended at 01:02; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:51 Sun to 01:02.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 20 Jun only, at 05:10: Sun 20 Jun.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 20 Jun Dashami lasts until 03:51, inside arunodaya (03:34–05:10), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 01:02, so Vaishnavas fast on Mon 21 Jun: Mon 21 Jun.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Mon 21 Jun, 06:14–21:11 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:02 on Mon 21 Jun to 21:52 on Mon 21 Jun; harivasara ends at 06:14. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 21:11: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:22.

Vaishnava · Tue 22 Jun, 05:10–21:11 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 21:52 Mon on Tue 22 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (03:34): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:10, to sunset, 21:11, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Jyeshtha Shukla Ekadashi

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

Smarta
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).
