Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 12 Jul, 05:59–12:57
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 13:20 on Wed 11 Jul to 12:57 on Thu 12 Jul; harivasara ends at 19:14 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 12 Jul, 05:59. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:37.
The rule
