Monday, September 13, 1982 · Begins 6:08 AM (Sunrise)

Complete fast from sunrise to sunrise (water-only, fruits, or Nirjala as per capacity). Continuous prayer, chanting, and night vigil (Jāgaraṇa).

Dvādaśī · Breaking the Fast (Pāraṇā)

Tuesday, 14 September 1982 · Pāraṇā Window: 6:08 AM – 9:11 AM
