Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Wed 23 Feb or Thu 24 Feb in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Padmini Ekadashi is on Wed 23 Feb: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Thu 24 Feb.

Dashami until 06:26, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:26 to 03:43 Thu.

Ekadashi ended at 03:43; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:26 Wed to 03:43.

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 holds sunrise on Wed 23 Feb only, at 06:53: Wed 23 Feb.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Wed 23 Feb Dashami lasts until 06:26, inside arunodaya (05:17–06:53), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 03:43, so Vaishnavas fast on Thu 24 Feb: Thu 24 Feb.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Thu 24 Feb, 08:57–18:32 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:43 on Thu 24 Feb to 00:38 on Fri 25 Feb; harivasara ends at 08:57. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:32: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:12.

Vaishnava · Fri 25 Feb, 06:52–18:33 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 00:38 on Fri 25 Feb, in the night, before arunodaya (05:16): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:52, to sunset, 18:33, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Shukla Ekadashi of an adhika month

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).
