Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 17 Jun, 04:15–05:15 (from arunodaya, Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 05:15 on Sun 17 Jun, after arunodaya begins (04:15) and before sunrise (05:51). 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.
