Why is Saphala Ekadashi on Wed 13 Dec in Sevan?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Wed 13 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 00:38 to 01:55 Thu.

Ekadashi ended at 01:55; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

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 Wed 13 Dec only, at 08:14: Wed 13 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 00:38, before it (06:38–08:14).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 14 Dec, 08:21–17:33 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:55 on Thu 14 Dec to 03:38 on Fri 15 Dec; harivasara ends at 08:21. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:33: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:07.

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).
