Why is Parsva Ekadashi on Sat 2 Sep in Sevan?
Parsva Ekadashi is on Sat 2 Sep: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 06:06, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:06 to 08:08 Sat.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:06 Fri to 08:08.
Dwadashi: 08:08 Sat to 09:42, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 06:27 on Fri 1 Sep and 06:28 on Sat 2 Sep. Ekadashi (06:06 Fri 1 Sep to 08:08 Sat 2 Sep) and Dwadashi (08:08 Sat 2 Sep to 09:42 Sun 3 Sep) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Sat 2 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Fri 1 Sep Dashami lasts until 06:06, inside it (04:51–06:27); on Sat 2 Sep Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 3 Sep, 06:29–09:42
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 08:08 on Sat 2 Sep to 09:42 on Sun 3 Sep; harivasara ends at 14:31 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 3 Sep, 06:29.
The rule
Bhadrapada Shukla Ekadashi
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).

- Breaking the fast
