Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 24 Jul, 06:02–18:25
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:23 on Mon 23 Jul to 18:25 on Tue 24 Jul; harivasara ends at 22:54 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 24 Jul, 06:02. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:40.
The rule
