Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Thu 28 Aug or Fri 29 Aug in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Padmini Ekadashi is on Thu 28 Aug: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 29 Aug.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 06:53. Ekadashi: 06:53 to 04:00 Fri.

Ekadashi ended at 04:00; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:53 Thu to 04:00.

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 begins at 06:53 on Thu 28 Aug, after that sunrise (06:13), and ends at 04:00 on Fri 29 Aug, before the next (06:13 Fri): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Thu 28 Aug.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 28 Aug arunodaya (04:37–06:13) is Dashami. On Fri 29 Aug it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 04:00, then Dwadashi): Fri 29 Aug.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Fri 29 Aug, 09:12–18:46 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:00 on Fri 29 Aug to 00:48 on Sat 30 Aug; harivasara ends at 09:12. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Sat 30 Aug, 06:13–18:46 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 00:48 on Sat 30 Aug, in the night, before arunodaya (04:37): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:13, to sunset, 18:46, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule
