Why is Parsva Ekadashi on Thu 16 Sep or Fri 17 Sep in Myjava?
Smarta · For Smartas, Parsva Ekadashi is on Thu 16 Sep: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 17 Sep.
Dashami until 06:06, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:06 to 04:38 Fri.
Ekadashi ended at 04:38; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:06 Thu to 04:38.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 16 Sep only, at 06:27: Thu 16 Sep.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 16 Sep Dashami lasts until 06:06, inside arunodaya (04:51–06:27), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 04:38, so Vaishnavas fast on Fri 17 Sep: Fri 17 Sep.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Fri 17 Sep, 10:19–18:58 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:38 on Fri 17 Sep to 03:24 on Sat 18 Sep; harivasara ends at 10:19. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:58: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:58, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Sat 18 Sep, 06:30–18:55 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:24 on Sat 18 Sep, in the night, before arunodaya (04:54): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:30, to sunset, 18:55, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
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).
- 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).
