Why is Parama Ekadashi on Sat 12 Aug in Pāthardi?
Parama Ekadashi is on Sat 12 Aug: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 05:06, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:06 to 06:32 Sat.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:06 Fri to 06:32.
Dwadashi: 06:32 Sat to 08:20, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 06:08 on Fri 11 Aug and 06:09 on Sat 12 Aug. Ekadashi (05:06 Fri 11 Aug to 06:32 Sat 12 Aug) and Dwadashi (06:32 Sat 12 Aug to 08:20 Sun 13 Aug) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Sat 12 Aug. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Fri 11 Aug Dashami lasts until 05:06, inside it (04:32–06:08); on Sat 12 Aug Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 13 Aug, 06:09–08:20
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:32 on Sat 12 Aug to 08:20 on Sun 13 Aug; harivasara ends at 12:59 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 13 Aug, 06:09.
The rule
Krishna Ekadashi of an adhika month
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
