Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 27 Oct, 07:24–14:45
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 13:00 on Wed 26 Oct to 14:45 on Thu 27 Oct; harivasara ends at 19:26 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 27 Oct, 07:24. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:32.
