Why is Papankusha Ekadashi on Wed 12 Oct in Pāthardi?
Papankusha Ekadashi is on Wed 12 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:30 Tue to 21:57.
Ekadashi ended at 21:57 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 12 Oct only, at 06:22: Wed 12 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:30 Tue, before it (04:46–06:22).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 13 Oct, 06:22–18:08 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:57 on Wed 12 Oct to 00:12 on Fri 14 Oct; harivasara ends at 04:31. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 13 Oct, 06:22. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:08: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43.
The rule
