Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 21 Jun, 05:30–15:49
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 13:43 on Thu 20 Jun to 15:49 on Fri 21 Jun; harivasara ends at 20:15 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 21 Jun, 05:30. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30.
The rule
