Panchang in Davinópolis, Maranhão, Brazil Wed 19 Jul 2017

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 19 Jul only, at 06:20: Wed 19 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:55 Tue, before it (04:44–06:20).

Kamika Ekadashi: every date in Davinópolis

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 300°–312° is the 26th, Krishna Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:20 here. Dashami ended at 22:55 Tue, before it. Ekadashi ends at 19:57, when the lead reaches 312°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 9 Jul, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

Sunrise here, 05:35, came before Dashami ended at 07:25: this day reads Dashami. Ekadashi ends at 04:27 Thu, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Ekadashi: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:20, came after Dashami ended at 22:55 Tue: this day reads Ekadashi.

The night of Tue 18 Jul ran from sunset 18:11 Tue to sunrise 06:20, 12 h 9 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:20 to 18:11, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:11 to 06:20 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 36°40′. It leaves at 11:14, for Rohini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 92.8° + 37° = 129.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 11:45, then Vriddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 09:29, when the lead reaches 306°; Balava until 19:57.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:20 to 06:20 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

An amanta month runs from new moon to new moon and takes its name from the rashi the Sun is in at the new moon that begins it: Mithuna gives Ashadha. The Sun enters Karka on 16 Jul, inside the month. The next new moon, 23 Jul, finds it in Karka and begins Shravana.

A purnimanta month runs from full moon to full moon, so its waning half comes first. It shares its name with the amanta month that its second half falls in: the new moon of 23 Jul, with the Sun in Karka, begins Shravana. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Shravana here, and Ashadha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 27 Mar 2017, 23:57 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 109.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2074; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1939.
