Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 12:12 Thu to 09:43.

Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 4 Jun, 05:41–06:41
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 09:43 on Fri 3 Jun to 06:41 on Sat 4 Jun; harivasara ends at 14:58 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 4 Jun, 05:41.
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).
