Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 8 Apr, 07:33–19:42
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:23 on Tue 7 Apr to 19:42 on Wed 8 Apr; harivasara ends at 23:58 Tue. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 8 Apr, 07:33. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:08.
