Why is Papankusha Ekadashi on Sat 16 Oct in Pāthardi?
Papankusha Ekadashi is on Sat 16 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 18:02 Fri to 17:38.
Ekadashi ended at 17:38 Sat; 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 Sat 16 Oct only, at 06:23: Sat 16 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 18:02 Fri, before it (04:47–06:23).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 17 Oct, 06:24–17:39
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:38 on Sat 16 Oct to 17:39 on Sun 17 Oct; harivasara ends at 23:38 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 17 Oct, 06:24. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44.
The rule
Ashwina Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
