Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 4 Oct, 06:59–15:39
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:03 on Fri 3 Oct to 15:39 on Sat 4 Oct; harivasara ends at 22:42 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 4 Oct, 06:59. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:19.
