Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Tue 26 May in Olean?
Padmini Ekadashi is on Tue 26 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:41 Mon to 20:52.
Ekadashi ended at 20:52 Tue; 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 Tue 26 May only, at 05:43: Tue 26 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:41 Mon, before it (04:07–05:43).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 27 May, 05:42–20:39 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:52 on Tue 26 May to 22:27 on Wed 27 May; harivasara ends at 03:16. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 27 May, 05:42. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:39: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
