Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 13 Aug, 07:08–18:08
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:47 on Mon 12 Aug to 18:08 on Tue 13 Aug; harivasara ends at 23:53 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 13 Aug, 07:08. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:54.
