Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 28 Apr, 05:18–16:52
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:16 on Mon 27 Apr to 16:52 on Tue 28 Apr; harivasara ends at 22:25 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 28 Apr, 05:18. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:00.
The rule
