Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 17 Feb, 05:21–05:56 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 05:56 on Thu 17 Feb, after arunodaya begins (05:21) and before sunrise (06:57). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: Tithika’s convention.
