🪷 2022 Ekādaśī Calendar · 25 Fast-Days for Vaiṣṇava Observance
Every 11th tithi of every pakṣa · the most sacred fast-day of the lunar cycle · 25 occurrences in 2022
Ekādaśī is the eleventh tithi (lunar day) of each pakṣa (fortnight). Two Ekādaśīs per month · 24 across the lunar year (occasionally 26 when there's an extra month). Vaiṣṇavas traditionally fast on these days · offering even food-restraint to Viṣṇu. Each Ekādaśī carries its own name and merit per the Bhāgavata-Purāṇa and Padma-Purāṇa.
