Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Sat 22 Apr in Sevan?

Varuthini Ekadashi is on Sat 22 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 03:25 to 02:34 Sun.

Ekadashi ended at 02:34; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 03:25 Sat to 02:34.

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 Sat 22 Apr only, at 06:11: Sat 22 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:25, before it (04:35–06:11).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 23 Apr, 08:10–19:47 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:34 on Sun 23 Apr to 00:56 on Mon 24 Apr; harivasara ends at 08:10. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:47: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:53.

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).
