Why is Dev Uthani Ekadashi on Fri 15 Nov in Sevan?
Dev Uthani Ekadashi is on Fri 15 Nov: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 17:29.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 17:29 Thu to 19:58.
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 holds sunrise on Fri 15 Nov only, at 07:45: Fri 15 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 17:29 Thu, before it (06:09–07:45).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 16 Nov, 07:47–17:42 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 19:58 on Fri 15 Nov to 22:33 on Sat 16 Nov; harivasara ends at 02:37. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 16 Nov, 07:47. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:42: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:46.
