Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 24 Feb, 06:52–18:06
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:05 on Tue 23 Feb to 18:06 on Wed 24 Feb; harivasara ends at 00:05. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 24 Feb, 06:52. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:12.
