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 Thu 11 Jan?
Pausha Putrada Ekadashi is on Thu 11 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 07:05. Ekadashi: 07:05 to 09:32 Thu.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 07:05 Wed to 09:32.
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 11 Jan only, at 06:47: Thu 11 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 07:05 Wed, before it (05:11–06:47).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 12 Jan, 06:47–11:32
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 09:32 on Thu 11 Jan to 11:32 on Fri 12 Jan; harivasara ends at 16:02 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 12 Jan, 06:47.
Why Sun 29 Dec?
Pausha Putrada Ekadashi is on Sun 29 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:04 to 05:25 Mon.
Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:25; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:04 Sun to 05:25.
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 Sun 29 Dec only, at 05:39: Sun 29 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:04, before it (04:03–05:39).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 30 Dec, 12:03–18:50 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:25 on Mon 30 Dec to 07:58 on Tue 31 Dec; harivasara ends at 12:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:50: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:18, which here ends before harivasara does.
