Why is Parsva Ekadashi on Tue 6 Sep or Wed 7 Sep in Pāthardi?
Smarta · For Smartas, Parsva Ekadashi is on Tue 6 Sep: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Wed 7 Sep.
Dashami until 05:54, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:54 to 03:05 Wed.
Ekadashi ended at 03:05; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:54 Tue to 03:05.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Tue 6 Sep only, at 06:15: Tue 6 Sep.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Tue 6 Sep Dashami lasts until 05:54, inside arunodaya (04:39–06:15), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 03:05, so Vaishnavas fast on Wed 7 Sep: Wed 7 Sep.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Wed 7 Sep, 08:20–18:39 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:05 on Wed 7 Sep to 00:05 on Thu 8 Sep; harivasara ends at 08:20. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:39: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:44.
Vaishnava · Thu 8 Sep, 06:15–18:38 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 00:05 on Thu 8 Sep, in the night, before arunodaya (04:39): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:15, to sunset, 18:38, 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).
