Why is Pausha Putrada Ekadashi on Mon 18 Jan or Tue 19 Jan in Sevan?
Smarta · For Smartas, Pausha Putrada Ekadashi is on Mon 18 Jan: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Tue 19 Jan.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:57. Ekadashi: 08:57 to 06:20 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 06:20; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:57 Mon to 06:20.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:57 on Mon 18 Jan, after that sunrise (08:20), and ends at 06:20 on Tue 19 Jan, before the next (08:19 Tue): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Mon 18 Jan.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Mon 18 Jan arunodaya (06:44–08:20) is Dashami. On Tue 19 Jan it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 06:20, then Dwadashi): Tue 19 Jan.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Tue 19 Jan, 11:32–18:01 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:20 on Tue 19 Jan to 03:11 on Wed 20 Jan; harivasara ends at 11:32. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:01: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:16, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Wed 20 Jan, 08:19–18:03 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:11 on Wed 20 Jan, in the night, before arunodaya (06:43): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 08:19, to sunset, 18:03, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
