The Importance of Ekadesi fast.....


Ekadashi, also written as Ekadasi, is the eleventh  lunar day  of the shukla or krishna   paksha  of every lunar month  in the  Hindu calendar . The period continues from sunrise on the day of Ekadasi to sunrise on the day following Ekadasi. Two Ekadasis occur in one month according to the positions of the moon. Ekadashi refers to 11th day, lunar day. This day is also known as Hari Vasara because it is dedicated to Lord Vishnu.

THE MYSTERIOUS NUMBER: 11:11

THE STORY BEHIND
Ekadasi is the name of the Goddesss. She arose Lord Vishnu to defeat Demon Mura. Happy with her divine act, Lord Vishnu blessed her that anyone who keep Ekadasi fast will be liberated of their sins.  Full  eating is reprove on  Ekadasi and fasting on that day is certainly very pleasing to Lord Krishna.
