Why is Parama Ekadashi on Wed 8 Apr in Ipameri?
Parama Ekadashi is on Wed 8 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:23 to 23:58.
Ekadashi ended at 23:58 Wed; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Wed 8 Apr only, at 06:20: Wed 8 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:23, before it (04:44–06:20).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 9 Apr, 06:20–18:07 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:58 on Wed 8 Apr to 23:57 on Thu 9 Apr; harivasara ends at 05:58. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 9 Apr, 06:20. 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 08:42.
