Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 2 Jun or Sat 3 Jun in Mapleton?
Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 2 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Sat 3 Jun.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:02.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:56; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:02 Fri to 05:56.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−6). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:02 on Fri 2 Jun, after that sunrise (05:58), and ends at 05:56 on Sat 3 Jun, before the next (05:58 Sat): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Fri 2 Jun.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Fri 2 Jun arunodaya (04:22–05:58) is Dashami. On Sat 3 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:56, then Dwadashi): Sat 3 Jun.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Sat 3 Jun, 11:27–20:51 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:56 on Sat 3 Jun to 03:59 on Sun 4 Jun; harivasara ends at 11:27. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:51: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:56, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sun 4 Jun, 05:58–20:52 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:59 on Sun 4 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:22): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:58, to sunset, 20:52, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule

- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
