Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 28 Oct, 06:28–12:54
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 10:47 on Tue 27 Oct to 12:54 on Wed 28 Oct; harivasara ends at 17:18 Tue. So parana runs from sunrise on Wed 28 Oct, 06:28. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:46.
The rule
