Narration of the Greatness of Harivāsara
Ekādaśī, the Day Sacred to Hari
तत्रोपोष्या द्वादशी स्यात्त्रयोदश्यां तु पारणम् । दशमीशेषसंयुक्तो यदि स्यादरुणोदयः
tatropoṣyā dvādaśī syāttrayodaśyāṃ tu pāraṇam | daśamīśeṣasaṃyukto yadi syādaruṇodayaḥ
اس صورت میں اُپواس دْوادَشی کو رکھا جائے اور پارن (افطار) تْرَیودَشی کو کیا جائے۔ یہ حکم تب ہے جب ارُنو دَی دَشَمی کے باقی حصے کے ساتھ ملا ہوا ہو۔
Unspecified (contextual narrator/instructor on vrata timing)
Concept: When Daśamī persists into aruṇodaya, Ekādaśī shifts: fast on Dvādaśī and break on Trayodaśī—dharma is protected by correct timing.
Application: Consult a reliable pañcāṅga; if Daśamī touches aruṇodaya, follow the prescribed shift (Dvādaśī upavāsa, Trayodaśī pāraṇa) rather than personal convenience.

FAQs
If the pre-dawn period (aruṇodaya) falls while the Daśamī tithi still remains, then the fast is assigned to Dvādaśī and the pāraṇa is done on Trayodaśī.
Aruṇodaya refers to the pre-sunrise dawn period used in traditional calendrical decisions; the verse treats its tithi-connection as decisive for scheduling the observance.
It emphasizes disciplined adherence to proper timing in religious observances—performing vows according to dharmic rules rather than convenience.
