Why is Shattila Ekadashi on Sun 7 Feb or Mon 8 Feb in Pāthardi?

Smarta · For Smartas, Shattila Ekadashi is on Sun 7 Feb: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 8 Feb.

Dashami until 06:26, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:26 to 04:47 Mon.

Ekadashi ended at 04:47; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 06:26 Sun to 04:47.

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

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 7 Feb only, at 07:01: Sun 7 Feb.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 7 Feb Dashami lasts until 06:26, inside arunodaya (05:25–07:01), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 04:47, so Vaishnavas fast on Mon 8 Feb: Mon 8 Feb.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Mon 8 Feb, 10:25–18:25 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 04:47 on Mon 8 Feb to 03:20 on Tue 9 Feb; harivasara ends at 10:25. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:25: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:18, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Tue 9 Feb, 07:00–18:26 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 03:20 on Tue 9 Feb, in the night, before arunodaya (05:24): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 07:00, to sunset, 18:26, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Magha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Pausha 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).
