Why is Parama Ekadashi on Tue 11 Sep in Ipameri?
Parama Ekadashi is on Tue 11 Sep: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:53 to 03:34 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 03:34; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:53 Tue to 03:34.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 11 Sep only, at 06:11: Tue 11 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:53, before it (04:35–06:11).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 12 Sep, 09:33–18:07 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:34 on Wed 12 Sep to 03:29 on Thu 13 Sep; harivasara ends at 09:33. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:07: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:33, which here ends before harivasara does.
