Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 19 May, 05:39–16:01
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 13:39 on Mon 18 May to 16:01 on Tue 19 May; harivasara ends at 20:14 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 19 May, 05:39. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:34.
