Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 4 Oct, 06:04–15:09
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:33 on Fri 3 Oct to 15:09 on Sat 4 Oct; harivasara ends at 22:12 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 4 Oct, 06:04. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:24.
