Why is Saphala Ekadashi on Sat 19 Dec in Pāthardi?
Saphala Ekadashi is on Sat 19 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:32 Fri to 20:27.
Ekadashi ended at 20:27 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
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 Sat 19 Dec only, at 06:56: Sat 19 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:32 Fri, before it (05:20–06:56).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 20 Dec, 06:57–17:56 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:27 on Sat 19 Dec to 20:39 on Sun 20 Dec; harivasara ends at 02:30. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 20 Dec, 06:57. 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 09:09.
The rule
Pausha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Margashirsha Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)
