Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sun 20 Jun in Faaa?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sun 20 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:51 to 22:02.
Ekadashi ended at 22:02 Sun; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−10). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 20 Jun only, at 06:27: Sun 20 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:51, before it (04:51–06:27).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 21 Jun, 06:28–17:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:02 on Sun 20 Jun to 18:52 on Mon 21 Jun; harivasara ends at 03:14. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 21 Jun, 06:28. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:32: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:40.
The rule
