Why is Rama Ekadashi on Thu 9 Nov in Sevan?
Rama Ekadashi is on Thu 9 Nov: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 06:53, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:53 to 09:12 Thu.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:53 Wed to 09:12.
Dwadashi: 09:12 Thu to 11:06, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 07:37 on Wed 8 Nov and 07:38 on Thu 9 Nov. Ekadashi (06:53 Wed 8 Nov to 09:12 Thu 9 Nov) and Dwadashi (09:12 Thu 9 Nov to 11:06 Fri 10 Nov) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Thu 9 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Wed 8 Nov Dashami lasts until 06:53, inside it (06:01–07:37); on Thu 9 Nov Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 10 Nov, 07:39–11:06
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 09:12 on Thu 9 Nov to 11:06 on Fri 10 Nov; harivasara ends at 15:40 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 10 Nov, 07:39.
The rule
Kartika Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
