🪷 2036 Ekādaśī Calendar · 24 Fast-Days for Vaiṣṇava Observance

Every 11th tithi of every pakṣa · the most sacred fast-day of the lunar cycle · 24 occurrences in 2036

यत्करोषि यदश्नासि यज्जुहोषि ददासि यत्।
यत्तपस्यसि कौन्तेय तत्कुरुष्व मदर्पणम्॥
"Whatever you do · whatever you eat · whatever you offer · whatever you give · whatever austerities you perform · O Kaunteya · do it as an offering to Me." — Bhagavad-Gītā 9.27 — Ekādaśī observance turns daily eating into supreme yajña

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.
