Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 6 Jun in Chahārbāgh?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 6 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:16 to 02:48 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 02:48; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 00:16 Fri to 02:48.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 6 Jun only, at 04:50: Fri 6 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:16, before it (03:14–04:50).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 7 Jun, 09:26–19:21 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:48 on Sat 7 Jun to 05:18 on Sun 8 Jun; harivasara ends at 09:26. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:21: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:44, which here ends before harivasara does.
