Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sat 3 Jun in Progress?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Sat 3 Jun: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:02 Fri to 20:56.
Ekadashi ended at 20:56 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+9). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 3 Jun only, at 04:17: Sat 3 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:02 Fri, before it (02:41–04:17).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 4 Jun, 04:16–18:59
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:56 on Sat 3 Jun to 18:59 on Sun 4 Jun; harivasara ends at 02:27. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 4 Jun, 04:16. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:29.
