Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Fri 26 May in Sevan?
Padmini Ekadashi is on Fri 26 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:29 to 23:16.
Ekadashi ended at 23:16 Fri; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 26 May only, at 05:34: Fri 26 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:29, before it (03:58–05:34).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 27 May, 05:34–20:20 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:16 on Fri 26 May to 22:22 on Sat 27 May; harivasara ends at 05:03. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 27 May, 05:34. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:20: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:31.
