Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 14 Feb, 06:58–16:02
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:26 on Fri 13 Feb to 16:02 on Sat 14 Feb; harivasara ends at 20:50 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 14 Feb, 06:58. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:16.
