Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 26 Jul only, at 04:50: Wed 26 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:06, before it (03:14–04:50).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 27 Jul, 09:10–19:20 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:52 on Thu 27 Jul to 04:05 on Fri 28 Jul; harivasara ends at 09:10. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:20: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:45, which here ends before harivasara does.
