Why does Pausha Putrada Ekadashi fall on these dates?
A lunar date comes about 11 days earlier each year, until an extra lunar month (adhika) moves it later again. One falling early in January can move back into the December before, so a year can have two, and the next year none.
Why Wed 5 Jan?
Pausha Putrada Ekadashi is on Wed 5 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:49 to 02:46 Thu.
Ekadashi ended at 02:46; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:49 Wed to 02:46.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 5 Jan only, at 05:43: Wed 5 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:49, before it (04:07–05:43).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 6 Jan, 08:52–18:52 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:46 on Thu 6 Jan to 03:11 on Fri 7 Jan; harivasara ends at 08:52. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:52: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:21, which here ends before harivasara does.
Why Mon 25 Dec?
Pausha Putrada Ekadashi is on Mon 25 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:31 Sun to 17:26.
Ekadashi ended at 17:26 Mon; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 25 Dec only, at 05:37: Mon 25 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:31 Sun, before it (04:01–05:37).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 26 Dec, 05:37–15:31
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:26 on Mon 25 Dec to 15:31 on Tue 26 Dec; harivasara ends at 22:58 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 26 Dec, 05:37. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:16.
