Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Wed 26 Jul or Thu 27 Jul in Pāthardi?
Smarta · For Smartas, Padmini Ekadashi is on Wed 26 Jul: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Thu 27 Jul.
Dashami until 04:36, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:36 to 05:22 Thu.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:22; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:36 Wed to 05:22.
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 26 Jul only, at 06:03: Wed 26 Jul.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Wed 26 Jul Dashami lasts until 04:36, inside arunodaya (04:27–06:03), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 05:22, so Vaishnavas fast on Thu 27 Jul: Thu 27 Jul.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Thu 27 Jul, 11:40–19:07 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:22 on Thu 27 Jul to 06:35 on Fri 28 Jul; harivasara ends at 11:40. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:07: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:40, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Fri 28 Jul, 06:03–06:35
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:22 on Thu 27 Jul to 06:35 on Fri 28 Jul; harivasara ends at 11:40 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 28 Jul, 06:03.
