Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 10 Jun or Sat 11 Jun in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 10 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Sat 11 Jun.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 05:56. Ekadashi: 05:56 to 04:16 Sat.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 04:16; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:56 Fri to 04:16.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 05:56 on Fri 10 Jun, after that sunrise (05:29), and ends at 04:16 on Sat 11 Jun, before the next (05:29 Sat): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Fri 10 Jun.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Fri 10 Jun arunodaya (03:53–05:29) is Dashami. On Sat 11 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 04:16, then Dwadashi): Sat 11 Jun.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Sat 11 Jun, 09:40–20:30 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:16 on Sat 11 Jun to 01:54 on Sun 12 Jun; harivasara ends at 09:40. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:30: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:29, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sun 12 Jun, 05:29–20:30 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 01:54 on Sun 12 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (03:53): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:29, to sunset, 20:30, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
