Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Sat 18 Apr in Sevan?

Varuthini Ekadashi is on Sat 18 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 18:34 Fri to 20:47.

Ekadashi ended at 20:47 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

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 18 Apr only, at 06:16: Sat 18 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 18:34 Fri, before it (04:40–06:16).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 19 Apr, 06:15–19:43 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 20:47 on Sat 18 Apr to 23:13 on Sun 19 Apr; harivasara ends at 03:24. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 19 Apr, 06:15. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:43: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:56.

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).
