Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 11 Sep, 06:16–18:20
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:44 on Fri 10 Sep to 18:20 on Sat 11 Sep; harivasara ends at 23:08 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 11 Sep, 06:16. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43.
