Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 12 Sep, 06:01–07:03 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 07:03 on Thu 12 Sep, after arunodaya begins (06:01) and before sunrise (07:37). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: Tithika’s convention.
