Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 2 Feb, 08:09–14:56
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 12:32 on Wed 1 Feb to 14:56 on Thu 2 Feb; harivasara ends at 19:08 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 2 Feb, 08:09. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:10.
