Why does Ekadashi fall on these dates?
The next one, Thu 5 Nov, in Kathmandu
Rama Ekadashi is on Thu 5 Nov: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 11:18.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 11:18 Wed to 10:51.
One row per day, on one clock (NPT). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 5 Nov only, at 06:17: Thu 5 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 11:18 Wed, before it (04:41–06:17).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 6 Nov, 06:17–10:46
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 10:51 on Thu 5 Nov to 10:46 on Fri 6 Nov; harivasara ends at 16:49 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 6 Nov, 06:17.
The rule
Kartika Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Ashwina 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).
