Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 21 Apr, 07:12–15:48
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:47 on Wed 20 Apr to 15:48 on Thu 21 Apr; harivasara ends at 21:02 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 21 Apr, 07:12. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:55.
