Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 17 Jun, 04:51–14:32
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:16 on Thu 16 Jun to 14:32 on Fri 17 Jun; harivasara ends at 20:20 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 17 Jun, 04:51. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 07:50.
The rule
