Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 30 May, 05:32–15:05
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:58 on Wed 29 May to 15:05 on Thu 30 May; harivasara ends at 21:00 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 30 May, 05:32. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30.
