Why is Papankusha Ekadashi on Tue 4 Oct or Wed 5 Oct in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Papankusha Ekadashi is on Tue 4 Oct: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 5 Oct.
Dashami until 06:25, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:25 to 04:17 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 04:17; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:25 Tue to 04:17.
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 4 Oct only, at 06:59: Tue 4 Oct.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 4 Oct Dashami lasts until 06:25, inside arunodaya (05:23–06:59), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 04:17, so Vaishnavas fast on Wed 5 Oct: Wed 5 Oct.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 5 Oct, 09:36–18:35 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:17 on Wed 5 Oct to 01:32 on Thu 6 Oct; harivasara ends at 09:36. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:35: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:19, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Thu 6 Oct, 07:01–18:33 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 01:32 on Thu 6 Oct, in the night, before arunodaya (05:25): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 07:01, to sunset, 18:33, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule

- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
