Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Sat 23 Apr in Sevan?
Varuthini Ekadashi is on Sat 23 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 22:50 Fri to 01:19 Sun.
Ekadashi ended at 01:19; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 22:50 Fri to 01:19.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 23 Apr only, at 05:10: Sat 23 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:50 Fri, before it (03:34–05:10).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 24 Apr, 07:58–18:47 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:19 on Sun 24 Apr to 03:56 on Mon 25 Apr; harivasara ends at 07:58. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:47: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:52, which here ends before harivasara does.
