Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Tue 5 Jun or Wed 6 Jun in Sevan?
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 06:45. Ekadashi: 06:45 to 03:52 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 03:52; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:45 Tue to 03:52.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 06:45 on Tue 5 Jun, after that sunrise (05:30), and ends at 03:52 on Wed 6 Jun, before the next (05:30 Wed): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Tue 5 Jun.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 5 Jun arunodaya (03:54–05:30) is Dashami. On Wed 6 Jun it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 03:52, then Dwadashi): Wed 6 Jun.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 6 Jun, 09:02–20:27 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:52 on Wed 6 Jun to 00:33 on Thu 7 Jun; harivasara ends at 09:02. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:27: 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, 05:29–20:28 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 00:33 on Thu 7 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (03:53): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:29, to sunset, 20:28, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
