Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 5 Dec, 05:12–06:21 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 06:21 on Sat 5 Dec, after arunodaya begins (05:12) and before sunrise (06:48). When Dwadashi is short, the Nirnayasindhu, citing the Matsya, brings parana forward to dawn, before Dwadashi ends. Tithika starts it at arunodaya: Tithika’s convention.
