Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Sat 14 Apr in Pāthardi?

Varuthini Ekadashi is on Sat 14 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 14:42.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 14:42 Fri to 16:44.

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 Sat 14 Apr only, at 06:12: Sat 14 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 14:42 Fri, before it (04:36–06:12).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 15 Apr, 06:11–18:46 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:44 on Sat 14 Apr to 19:07 on Sun 15 Apr; harivasara ends at 23:19 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 15 Apr, 06:11. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.

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).
