Why is Saphala Ekadashi on Wed 16 Dec in Ipameri?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Wed 16 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:51 to 00:40 Thu.

Ekadashi ended at 00:40; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 16 Dec only, at 06:32: Wed 16 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:51, before it (04:56–06:32).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 17 Dec, 06:33–19:44 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:40 on Thu 17 Dec to 23:38 on Thu 17 Dec; harivasara ends at 06:25. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 17 Dec, 06:33. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:44: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:11.

The rule

Pausha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Margashirsha Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)

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).
