Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Mon 21 Jun in Progress?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Mon 21 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:51 Sun to 17:02.
Ekadashi ended at 17:02 Mon; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+9). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 21 Jun only, at 04:13: Mon 21 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:51 Sun, before it (02:37–04:13).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 22 Jun, 04:13–13:52
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:02 on Mon 21 Jun to 13:52 on Tue 22 Jun; harivasara ends at 22:14 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 22 Jun, 04:13. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:29.
The rule
