Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Tue 30 May in Ipameri?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Tue 30 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:38 to 05:16 Wed.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:16; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:38 Tue to 05:16.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 30 May only, at 06:35: Tue 30 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 04:38, before it (04:59–06:35).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 31 May, 11:14–17:44 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:16 on Wed 31 May to 05:09 on Thu 1 Jun; harivasara ends at 11:14. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:44: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:49, which here ends before harivasara does.
