Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 22 Dec, 08:20–17:36 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 05:55 on Thu 22 Dec, in the night, before arunodaya (06:44): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 08:20, to sunset, 17:36, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
