Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 16 May, 06:42–19:18
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:44 on Wed 15 May to 19:18 on Thu 16 May; harivasara ends at 23:23 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 16 May, 06:42. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:36.
