Parama Ekadashi is on Thu 13 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 04:54 to 05:10 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 05:10; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 04:54 Thu to 05:10.
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 Thu 13 Oct only, at 07:08: Thu 13 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 04:54, before it (05:32–07:08).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 14 Oct, 11:02–18:22 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:10 on Fri 14 Oct to 04:38 on Sat 15 Oct; harivasara ends at 11:02. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:22: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:23, which here ends before harivasara does.
