Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 29 May, 04:33–13:58
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 12:31 on Fri 28 May to 13:56 on Sat 29 May; harivasara ends at 18:52 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 29 May, 04:31. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:28.
