Why is Dev Uthani Ekadashi on Wed 4 Nov in Sevan?
Dev Uthani Ekadashi is on Wed 4 Nov: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:32 Tue to 20:54.
Ekadashi ended at 20:54 Wed; 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 Wed 4 Nov only, at 06:30: Wed 4 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:32 Tue, before it (04:54–06:30).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 5 Nov, 06:33–16:52 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:54 on Wed 4 Nov to 18:11 on Thu 5 Nov; harivasara ends at 02:13. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 5 Nov, 06:31. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 16:50: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:35.
The rule
Kartika Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
