Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 31 May, 05:32–13:14
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:29 on Sat 30 May to 13:14 on Sun 31 May; harivasara ends at 20:55 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 31 May, 05:32. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:30.
