Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Thu 30 Apr in Sevan?
Varuthini Ekadashi is on Thu 30 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:21 to 23:12.
Ekadashi ended at 23:12 Thu; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 30 Apr only, at 07:00: Thu 30 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:21, before it (05:24–07:00).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 1 May, 06:59–20:22
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:12 on Thu 30 Apr to 20:22 on Fri 1 May; harivasara ends at 04:29. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 1 May, 06:59. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:46.
