Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Tue 5 Jun or Wed 6 Jun in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Nirjala Ekadashi is on Tue 5 Jun: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 6 Jun.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:15.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:22; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:15 Tue to 05:22.

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

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:15 on Tue 5 Jun, after that sunrise (05:50), and ends at 05:22 on Wed 6 Jun, before the next (05:50 Wed): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Tue 5 Jun.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 5 Jun arunodaya (04:14–05:50) is Dashami. On Wed 6 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:22, then Dwadashi): Wed 6 Jun.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Wed 6 Jun, 10:32–19:05 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:22 on Wed 6 Jun to 02:03 on Thu 7 Jun; harivasara ends at 10:32. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:05: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:29, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Thu 7 Jun, 05:50–19:05 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 02:03 on Thu 7 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:14): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:50, to sunset, 19:05, 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).
