Why is Papamochani Ekadashi on Wed 7 Apr in Pāthardi?
Papamochani Ekadashi is on Wed 7 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:09 to 02:29 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 02:29; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:09 Wed to 02:29.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 7 Apr only, at 06:18: Wed 7 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:09, before it (04:42–06:18).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 8 Apr, 08:41–18:44 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:29 on Thu 8 Apr to 03:16 on Fri 9 Apr; harivasara ends at 08:41. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:44: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:46.
