Why is Parama Ekadashi on Tue 10 Aug in Pāthardi?
Parama Ekadashi is on Tue 10 Aug: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:04 to 22:12.
Ekadashi ended at 22:12 Tue; 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 Tue 10 Aug only, at 06:08: Tue 10 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:04, before it (04:32–06:08).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 11 Aug, 06:08–18:59 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:12 on Tue 10 Aug to 19:03 on Wed 11 Aug; harivasara ends at 03:25. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 11 Aug, 06:08. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:59: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
