Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 21 Jul, 05:35–20:54 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:56 on Wed 21 Jul, in the night, before arunodaya (03:59): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:35, to sunset, 20:54, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
