Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Wed 25 Apr in Pāthardi?
Padmini Ekadashi is on Wed 25 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:07 Tue to 21:12.
Ekadashi ended at 21:12 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 25 Apr only, at 06:05: Wed 25 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:07 Tue, before it (04:29–06:05).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 26 Apr, 06:04–18:49 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:12 on Wed 25 Apr to 21:31 on Thu 26 Apr; harivasara ends at 03:16. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 26 Apr, 06:04. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:49: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:37.
