Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 30 Sep, 06:13–17:04
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:37 on Fri 29 Sep to 17:04 on Sat 30 Sep; harivasara ends at 21:14 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 30 Sep, 06:13. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:34.
