Why is Parsva Ekadashi on Mon 25 Sep or Tue 26 Sep in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Parsva Ekadashi is on Mon 25 Sep: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Tue 26 Sep.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 07:56. Ekadashi: 07:56 to 05:01 Tue.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:01; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 07:56 Mon to 05:01.

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

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 07:56 on Mon 25 Sep, after that sunrise (06:18), and ends at 05:01 on Tue 26 Sep, before the next (06:18 Tue): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Mon 25 Sep.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Mon 25 Sep arunodaya (04:42–06:18) is Dashami. On Tue 26 Sep it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 05:01, then Dwadashi): Tue 26 Sep.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Tue 26 Sep, 10:12–18:22 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:01 on Tue 26 Sep to 01:46 on Wed 27 Sep; harivasara ends at 10:12. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:22: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Wed 27 Sep, 06:18–18:21 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 01:46 on Wed 27 Sep, in the night, before arunodaya (04:42): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:18, to sunset, 18:21, 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).
