What is Ekadashi Vrat?

Ekadashi occurs twice a month in the Hindu lunar calendar — once during the waxing phase (Shukla Paksha) and once during the waning phase (Krishna Paksha).

Observing Ekadashi involves fasting, chanting, praying, and engaging in devotional activities to seek the mercy of Lord Vishnu.
