Describe Ekadasi?
The Hindu calendar has a specific day designated for prayer and fasting called Ekadashi. Ekadashi is regarded as an auspicious day when the gods visit the earth and bestow blessings on their followers. Every month has two Ekadashis, one during the waxing phase and the other during the waning phase. The “Mukkoti Ekadashi,” which occurs during the month of Kartik, is considered to be the most significant Ekadashi.
What makes Ekadashi unique?
The Hindu calendar has a specific day designated for prayer and fasting called Ekadashi. Lord Vishnu’s followers keep a severe fast from sunrise to sunset on this day. Ekadashi is regarded as an auspicious day on which Lord Vishnu bestows his blessings. Additionally, it is thought that fasting on Ekadashi purifies the soul and aids in salvation.
When does Ekadashi fall?
During the waxing phase of the moon (Shukla Paksha) and the waning phase of the moon, respectively, there are two Ekadashis in a month (Krishna Paksha). Devotthan Ekadashi and Papamocani Ekadashi are the names of the Ekadashis that fall on the waxing and waning phases, respectively.
Which Ekadashi has the highest strength?
This question cannot have a firm answer because it is a matter of opinion. However, many people consider the Ekadashi which falls on the 11th day of the waxing moon cycle to be the most potent (Shukla Paksha). It is believed that people looking for spiritual freedom will benefit most from this Ekadashi, known as Jaya Ekadashi.
Why is Ekadashi an Important Day?
A highly significant day designated for worship and fasting is called Ekadashi. We can communicate with the Supreme Lord on this day and get His blessings. All throughout the year, there is a variety of Ekadashis, each with its own significance and goal. The Ekadashi that occurs on the eleventh day of the waxing moon phase is the most potent. It is believed that those who observe this fast on this Ekadashi, also known as Jaya Ekadashi, shall be freed from the cycle of birth and death.
