Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Mon 16 Apr in Sevan?

Varuthini Ekadashi is on Mon 16 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:41 to 03:37 Tue.

Ekadashi ended at 03:37; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:41 Mon to 03:37.

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 Mon 16 Apr only, at 06:19: Mon 16 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:41, before it (04:43–06:19).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 17 Apr, 09:57–19:41 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:37 on Tue 17 Apr to 05:00 on Wed 18 Apr; harivasara ends at 09:57. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:41: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:58, which here ends before harivasara does.

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).
