Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 13 Sep, 06:38–18:45
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:36 on Fri 12 Sep to 18:45 on Sat 13 Sep; harivasara ends at 23:08 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 13 Sep, 06:38. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:09.
