Why is Papamochani Ekadashi on Tue 21 Mar in Sevan?
Papamochani Ekadashi is on Tue 21 Mar: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:06 Mon to 22:44.
Ekadashi ended at 22:44 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 21 Mar only, at 07:01: Tue 21 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:06 Mon, before it (05:25–07:01).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 22 Mar, 06:59–19:14 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:44 on Tue 21 Mar to 01:26 on Thu 23 Mar; harivasara ends at 05:24. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 22 Mar, 06:59. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:14: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:26.
