Why is Dev Uthani Ekadashi on Fri 11 Nov in Sevan?
Dev Uthani Ekadashi is on Fri 11 Nov: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 09:51. Ekadashi: 09:51 to 07:42 Fri.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 09:51 Thu to 07:42.
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 11 Nov only, at 07:41: Fri 11 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 09:51 Thu, before it (06:05–07:41).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 12 Nov, 07:43–17:44 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 04:53 on Sat 12 Nov, in the night, before arunodaya (06:07): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 07:43, to sunset, 17:44, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule
Kartika Shukla Ekadashi
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
