Why is Parsva Ekadashi on Thu 16 Sep or Fri 17 Sep in Sevan?

Smarta · For Smartas, Parsva Ekadashi is on Thu 16 Sep: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Fri 17 Sep.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:06. Ekadashi: 08:06 to 06:38 Fri.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 06:38; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:06 Thu to 06:38.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:06 on Thu 16 Sep, after that sunrise (06:41), and ends at 06:38 on Fri 17 Sep, before the next (06:42 Fri): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Thu 16 Sep.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Thu 16 Sep arunodaya (05:05–06:41) is Dashami. On Fri 17 Sep it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 06:38, then Dwadashi): Fri 17 Sep.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Fri 17 Sep, 12:19–19:05 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:38 on Fri 17 Sep to 05:24 on Sat 18 Sep; harivasara ends at 12:19. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:05: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:11, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Sat 18 Sep, 05:07–05:24 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 05:24 on Sat 18 Sep, after arunodaya begins (05:07) and before sunrise (06:43). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: 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).
