Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 26 Aug, 07:20–15:44
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:58 on Thu 25 Aug to 15:44 on Fri 26 Aug; harivasara ends at 22:39 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 26 Aug, 07:20. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:01.
