Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Tue 18 Jun in Pāthardi?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Tue 18 Jun: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 04:44, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:44 to 06:25 Tue.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:44 Mon to 06:25.
Dwadashi: 06:25 Tue to 07:28, longer than its day: it grows too.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 05:51 on Mon 17 Jun and 05:51 on Tue 18 Jun. Ekadashi (04:44 Mon 17 Jun to 06:25 Tue 18 Jun) and Dwadashi (06:25 Tue 18 Jun to 07:28 Wed 19 Jun) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Tue 18 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Mon 17 Jun Dashami lasts until 04:44, inside it (04:15–05:51); on Tue 18 Jun Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 19 Jun, 05:51–07:28
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:25 on Tue 18 Jun to 07:28 on Wed 19 Jun; harivasara ends at 12:41 Tue. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 19 Jun, 05:51.
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).
