Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Sun 27 Apr in Sevan?
Varuthini Ekadashi is on Sun 27 Apr: Ekadashi and Dwadashi both grow, so Smartas take the later day, and its arunodaya is free of Dashami.
Dashami until 06:29, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:29 to 07:59 Sun.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 06:29 Sat to 07:59.
Dwadashi: 07:59 Sun to 09:54, longer than its day: it grows too.
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 both sunrises, 07:06 on Sat 26 Apr and 07:05 on Sun 27 Apr. Ekadashi (06:29 Sat 26 Apr to 07:59 Sun 27 Apr) and Dwadashi (07:59 Sun 27 Apr to 09:54 Mon 28 Apr) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Sun 27 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Sat 26 Apr Dashami lasts until 06:29, inside it (05:30–07:06); on Sun 27 Apr Ekadashi holds all of it.
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 28 Apr, 07:03–09:54
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 07:59 on Sun 27 Apr to 09:54 on Mon 28 Apr; harivasara ends at 14:28 Sun. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 28 Apr, 07:03.
The rule
Vaishakha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Chaitra 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).
