Why is Papamochani Ekadashi on Thu 23 Mar or Fri 24 Mar in Ipameri?
Smarta · For Smartas, Papamochani Ekadashi is on Thu 23 Mar: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 24 Mar.
Dashami until 04:57, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:57 to 05:23 Fri.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:23; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:57 Thu to 05:23.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 23 Mar only, at 06:17: Thu 23 Mar.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 23 Mar Dashami lasts until 04:57, inside arunodaya (04:41–06:17), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 05:23, so Vaishnavas fast on Fri 24 Mar: Fri 24 Mar.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Fri 24 Mar, 11:18–18:20 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:23 on Fri 24 Mar to 05:03 on Sat 25 Mar; harivasara ends at 11:18. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:20: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sat 25 Mar, 04:41–05:03 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 05:03 on Sat 25 Mar, after arunodaya begins (04:41) and before sunrise (06:17). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: Tithika’s convention.
