Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Fri 13 Apr or Sat 14 Apr in Sevan?

Smarta · For Smartas, Varuthini Ekadashi is on Fri 13 Apr: Ekadashi holds no sunrise, and a kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current. Vaishnavas fast on Sat 14 Apr.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:29. Ekadashi: 08:29 to 06:13 Sat.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 06:13; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 08:29 Fri to 06:13.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:29 on Fri 13 Apr, after that sunrise (07:25), and ends at 06:13 on Sat 14 Apr, before the next (07:24 Sat): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Fri 13 Apr.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Fri 13 Apr arunodaya (05:49–07:25) is Dashami. On Sat 14 Apr it holds no Dashami (Ekadashi until 06:13, then Dwadashi): Sat 14 Apr.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Sat 14 Apr, 11:31–20:37 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:13 on Sat 14 Apr to 03:23 on Sun 15 Apr; harivasara ends at 11:31. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:37: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:02, which here ends before harivasara does.

Vaishnava · Sun 15 Apr, 07:22–20:38 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 03:23 on Sun 15 Apr, in the night, before arunodaya (05:46): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 07:22, to sunset, 20:38, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

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).
