Why is Utpanna Ekadashi on Fri 4 Dec in Sevan?
Utpanna Ekadashi is on Fri 4 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 21:34 Thu to 22:15.
Ekadashi ended at 22:15 Fri; 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 Fri 4 Dec only, at 08:06: Fri 4 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 21:34 Thu, before it (06:30–08:06).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 5 Dec, 08:07–17:33 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 22:15 on Fri 4 Dec to 23:22 on Sat 5 Dec; harivasara ends at 04:32. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 5 Dec, 08:07. 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 10:00.
