About this festival

Ekadashi is the eleventh lunar day of each fortnight, dedicated to Lord Vishnu. There are 24 Ekadashis in a year (26 in a year with an extra month), each with its own name, such as Nirjala, Devshayani and Dev Uthani Ekadashi.

How it is observed

  • Fast from grains on Ekadashi.
  • Vishnu puja and reading of Vishnu Sahasranama.
  • Break the fast (parana) the next morning after sunrise.

Questions people ask

Why do some calendars show Ekadashi on two days?

Smarta and Vaishnava traditions follow slightly different rules when Ekadashi touches Dashami. This site follows the sunrise rule; check your sampradaya's calendar.
