Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 23 Jun, 06:30–15:37
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:14 on Tue 22 Jun to 15:37 on Wed 23 Jun; harivasara ends at 22:05 Tue. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 23 Jun, 06:30. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:30.
