Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Sat 24 Apr or Sun 25 Apr in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Padmini Ekadashi is on Sat 24 Apr: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Sun 25 Apr.
Dashami until 05:39, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:39 to 03:03 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 03:03; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:39 Sat to 03:03.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 24 Apr only, at 07:08: Sat 24 Apr.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sat 24 Apr Dashami lasts until 05:39, inside arunodaya (05:32–07:08), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 03:03, so Vaishnavas fast on Sun 25 Apr: Sun 25 Apr.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Sun 25 Apr, 08:24–20:49 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:03 on Sun 25 Apr to 00:24 on Mon 26 Apr; harivasara ends at 08:24. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:49: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:51.
Vaishnava · Mon 26 Apr, 07:06–20:50 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 00:24 on Mon 26 Apr, in the night, before arunodaya (05:30): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 07:06, to sunset, 20:50, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
