Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Fri 23 Jun or Sat 24 Jun in Sevan?

Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Fri 23 Jun: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Sat 24 Jun.

Dashami until 04:52, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:52 to 01:56 Sat.

Ekadashi ended at 01:56; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:52 Fri to 01:56.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 23 Jun only, at 05:30: Fri 23 Jun.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Fri 23 Jun Dashami lasts until 04:52, inside arunodaya (03:54–05:30), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 01:56, so Vaishnavas fast on Sat 24 Jun: Sat 24 Jun.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Sat 24 Jun, 07:09–20:34 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:56 on Sat 24 Jun to 22:49 on Sat 24 Jun; harivasara ends at 07:09. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:34: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:31.

Vaishnava · Sun 25 Jun, 05:31–20:34 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 22:49 Sat on Sun 25 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (03:55): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:31, to sunset, 20:34, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

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).
