Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 21 Jul, 06:05–14:22
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:21 on Sat 20 Jul to 14:22 on Sun 21 Jul; harivasara ends at 21:06 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 21 Jul, 06:05. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:56.
The rule
