Why is Rama Ekadashi on Mon 25 Oct or Tue 26 Oct in Erode?
Smarta · For Smartas, Rama Ekadashi is on Mon 25 Oct: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Tue 26 Oct.
Dashami until 05:40, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:40 to 03:22 Tue.
Ekadashi ended at 03:22; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 05:40 Mon to 03:22.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 25 Oct only, at 06:09: Mon 25 Oct.
Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Mon 25 Oct Dashami lasts until 05:40, inside arunodaya (04:33–06:09), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 03:22, so Vaishnavas fast on Tue 26 Oct: Tue 26 Oct.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Tue 26 Oct, 08:47–17:56 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:22 on Tue 26 Oct to 01:04 on Wed 27 Oct; harivasara ends at 08:47. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:56: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:31, which here ends before harivasara does.
Vaishnava · Wed 27 Oct, 06:09–17:56 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 01:04 on Wed 27 Oct, in the night, before arunodaya (04:33): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:09, to sunset, 17:56, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
The rule
Kartika Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

- 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).
