Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Sat 3 Jun in Temascal?

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 08:02 Fri to 05:56.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 3 Jun only, at 05:48: Sat 3 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 08:02 Fri, before it (04:12–05:48).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 4 Jun, 05:48–18:59 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:59 on Sun 4 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:12): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:48, to sunset, 18:59, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule

- 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).
