Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Fri 25 Apr in Pāthardi?
Varuthini Ekadashi is on Fri 25 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 19:43 Thu to 17:37.
Ekadashi ended at 17:37 Fri; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 25 Apr only, at 06:05: Fri 25 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 19:43 Thu, before it (04:29–06:05).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 26 Apr, 06:04–15:41
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:37 on Fri 25 Apr to 15:41 on Sat 26 Apr; harivasara ends at 23:08 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 26 Apr, 06:04. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:37.
