SUMMARY:Vijayā Ekādaśī Vrataṁ - Phālguna-kṛṣṇa pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:BREAKING THE FAST ON THE NEXT DAY. \nYudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja said\, “O Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa\, O glorious son of Vasudeva\, please be merciful to me and describe the Ekādaśī that occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Phālguna [February-March].” \nLord Śrī Kṛṣṇa replied\, “O Yudhiṣṭhira\, O king of kings\, gladly shall I tell you about this great fast\, known as Vijayā Ekādaśī. Whoever observes it certainly achieves success both in this life and the next. All the sins of one who fasts on this Ekādaśī and hears its sublime glories are eradicated. \n“Nārada Muni once asked Lord Brahmā\, who sits on a lotus\, about Vijayā Ekādaśī. Nārada said\, `O best of the demigods\, kindly tell me the merit one can achieve by faithfully observing Vijayā Ekādaśī. \n……………………………………………………\nClick here to order a copy of the Ekadashi book\, in which you can read this complete article

SUMMARY:Jayā Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Māgha śukla pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:Yudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja said\, “O Lord of lords\, Śrī Kṛṣṇa\, all glories unto You! O master of the universe\, You alone are the source of the four types of living entities-those born from eggs\, those born from perspiration\, those born from seeds\, and those born from embryos. You alone are the root cause of all\, O Lord\, and therefore You are the creator\, maintainer\, and destroyer. \n“My Lord\, You have so kindly explained to me the auspicious day known as Ṣaṭ-tilā Ekādaśī\, which occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Māgha [January-February] . Now please explain the Ekādaśī that occurs during the light fortnight of this month. By what name is it known\, and what is the process for observing it? Who is the Deity that is worshiped on this sublime day\, which is so very dear to You?” \n……………………………………………………\nClick here to order a copy of the Ekadashi book\, in which you can read this complete article

SUMMARY:Ṣaṭ-tilā Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Māgha-kṛṣṇa pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:Dālbhya R̥ṣi said to Pulastya Munī\, “When the spirit soul comes in contact with the material energy\, he immediately begins to perform sinful activities\, such as stealing\, killing\, and illicit sex. He may even perform many other terrible deeds\, such as killing a brāhmaṇa. 0 purest of personalities\, please tell me how these unfortunate souls may escape the punishment of being sent to hellish regions of creation. Kindly inform me how\, by giving even a little in charity\, one may easily become free of his sins.”\nPulastya Munī replied\, “O fortunate one\, you have asked me a good and confidential question\, which not even Brahmā\, Viṣṇu\, Śiva\, or Indra has ever asked. Please listen very carefully to my answer. \n“With the arrival of the month of Māgha [January-February] \, one should bathe\, carefully control his senses by giving up lust \, anger\, pride\, jealousy\, faultfinding\, and greed\, and meditate on the Supreme Personality of Godhead\, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. One should then gather up some cow dung before it touches the ground and\, after mixing it with sesame seeds and cotton\, form 108 balls. This should be done on the day when the constellation of Purvāṣāḍhā-nakṣatra arrives. Then one should follow the rules and regulations of Ekādaśī\, which I shall now explain to you.” \n……………………………………………………\nClick here to order a copy of the Ekadashi book\, in which you can read this complete article

SUMMARY:Putradā Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Pauṣa-śukla pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:BREAKING THE FAST ON THE NEXT DAY. KHICHRI BHOG ENDS HERE. \nYudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja said\, “O Lord\, You have so nicely explained the glories of the auspicious Saphalā Ekādaśī\, which occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Pauṣa [December-January] . Now please be merciful to me and explain the Ekādaśī of the light fortnight of this month. What is its name\, and what Deity should be worshiped on that sacred day? O Puruṣottama\, O Hṛṣīkeśa\, please also tell me how You can be pleased on this day.” \nLord Śrī Kṛṣṇa replied\, “O king\, for the benefit of all humanity I shall tell you how to observe fasting on Pauṣa-śukla Ekādaśī. “As I previously explained\, everyone should observe the rules and regulations of Ekādaśī to the best of his ability. This injunction also applies to the Ekādaśī named Putradā\, which destroys all sins and elevates one to the spiritual abode. Śrī Nārāyana\, the Supreme Lord and original personality\, is the worshipable Deity of this Ekādaśī\, and for His faithful devotee He happily fulfills all desires and awards full perfection. Thus among all the animate and inanimate beings in the three worlds\, there is no better personality than Lord Nārāyana.” \n……………………………………………………\nClick here to order a copy of the Ekadashi book\, in which you can read this complete article

DESCRIPTION:FASTING FROM ALL GRAINS AND BEANS MUST BE OBSERVED.\nFOLLOWED BY BREAKING THE FAST ON THE NEXT DAY. \nSuta Gosvami said\, “O learned brahmanas\, long ago Lord Sri Krsna\, the Supreme Personality of Godhead\, explained the auspicious glories of Sri Ekadasi and the rules and regulations governing each observance of fasting on that holy day. O best of the brahmanas\, whoever hears about the origins and glories of these sacred fasts on the Ekadasi days goes directly to the abode of Lord Visnu after enjoying many different kinds of happiness in this material world. \n“Arjuna\, the son of Prtha\, asked the Lord\, ‘O Janardana\, what are the pious benefits of complete fasting\, eating only supper\, or eating but once at midday on Ekadasi\, and what are the regulations for observing the various Ekadasi days? Kindly narrate all this to me. \n“The Supreme Lord\, Krsna\, replied\, ‘O Arjuna\, in the beginning of winter\, on the Ekadasi that occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Margasirsa [November-December]\, a novice should begin his practice of observing a fast on Ekadasi. On Dasami\, the day before Ekadasi. he should clean his teeth nicely.

SUMMARY:Haribodhinī Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Kārtika-śukla pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:BREAKING THE FAST ON THE NEXT DAY: BHISMA PANCHAKA STARTS ON THIS DAY. LORD KRSNA IS OFFERED GHEE LAMP KEPT ON A PEALED SUGARCANE PIECE IN THE EVENING.\n\nLord Brahmā said to Nārada Muni\, “Dear son\, O best of the sages\, I shall narrate to you the glories of Haribodhinī Ekādaśī\, which eradicates all kinds of sins and bestows great merit\, and ultimately liberation\, upon the wise persons who surrender unto the Supreme Lord. “O best of the brāhmaṇas\, the merits acquired by bathing in the Ganges remain significant only as long as Haribodhinī Ekādaśī does not come. This Ekādaśī\, which occurs during the light fortnight of the month of Kārtika\, is much more purifying than a bath in the ocean\, at a place of pilgrimage\, or in a lake. This sacred Ekādaśī is more powerful in nullifying sin than one thousand Aśvamedha sacrifices and one hundred Rājasūya sacrifices.” \n……………………………………………………\nClick here to order a copy of the Ekadashi book\, in which you can read this complete article

SUMMARY:Pāpāṅkuśā Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Āśviṇa śukla pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:BREAKING THE FAST ON THE NEXT DAY. THE MILK FAST ENDS ON THIS DAY AND THE FASTING FROM ALL KINDS OF NUTS AND BEANS BEGINS ON THIS DAY AND LASTS FOR THE NEXT 30 DAYS. EGGPLANTS (OR BRINGAL) AND GUR (RAW SUGAR OR BROWN SUGAR) CANNOT BE CONSUMED IN THIS MONTH. DEVOTEES TAKE SOME EXTRA SPIRITUAL VOWS FOR THE KARTIKA MONTH ON THIS DAY. AKASHA DEEPA DANAM (OFFERING A GHEE LAMP TO THE LORD) AND SINGING OF DAMODARASTAM ALONG WITH THE VRAJARAJA-SUTASTAKAM BEGINS ON THIS DAY AND LASTS UNTIL KARTIKA MONTH ENDS. \nYudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja said\, “O Madhūsudana\, what is the name of the Ekādaśī that occurs during the light fortnight of the month of Āśvina [September-October]? Please be merciful and tell this to me.” \nThe Supreme Lord\, Śrī Kṛṣṇa\, replied\, “O king\, please listen as I explain the glories of this Ekādaśī–Pāpāṅkuśā Ekādaśī–which removes all sins. On this day one should worship the Deity of Padmanābha\, the lotus-naveled Lord\, according to the rules and regulations. By doing so\, one achieves whatever heavenly pleasures he wants in this world and at last attains liberation. Simply by offering one’s humble obeisances unto Lord Viṣṇu\, the rider of Garuḍa\, once can achieve the same merit as is won by performing great penances for a long time with completely controlled senses. Although a person might have committed unlimited sins\, he can still escape hell just by paying his obeisances to Lord Hari\, who removes all sins. \n……………………………………………………\nClick here to order a copy of the Ekadashi book\, in which you can read this complete article \n

SUMMARY:Parivartinī Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Bhādrapada śukla pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:BREAKING THE FAST ON NEXT DAY. THE YOGURT FAST ENDS HERE. THE MILK FAST STARTS ON THIS DAY AND LASTS FOR THE NEXT 30 DAYS. \nYudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja asked of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa\, “What is the name of that Ekādaśī that occurs during the light fortnight (shukla paksha) of the month of Bhādrapada (August-September) ? Who is the worshipable Deity for this Ekādaśī\, and what merit does one attain in observing it? Kindly reveal all of this to me my Lord.” \nThe Supreme Lord\, Śrī Kṛṣṇa addressed His devoted Yudhiṣṭhira as follows\, “This Ekādaśī\, O Yudhiṣṭhira\, is called Vāmana Ekādaśī\, and it bestows upon those who observe it both great merit and ultimate liberation from material bondage. Therefore\, because it removes all one‟s sinful reactions\, it is also called Jayantī Ekādaśī. Just hearing of its glories frees one from all his past misdeeds. So auspicious is this fast that observing it bestows the same merit as that earned by performing a horse sacrifice. There is no better Ekādaśī than this\, because it awards liberation so easily. Thus if one truly desires freedom from the punishing material world\, one should fast on Vāmana Ekādaśī. \n“While observing this holy fast\, a Vaiṣṇava should lovingly worship the Supreme Lord in His form as Vāmandev\, the dwarf incarnation\, whose eyes are like lotus petals. By doing so\, he worships all other Deities as well\, including Brahmā\, Viṣṇu\, and Śiva\, and at death he undoubtedly goes to that abode of Śrī Hari. In all the three worlds there is no fast that is more important to observe. The reason this Ekādaśī is so auspicious is that it celebrates the day when the sleeping Lord Viṣṇu turns over on His other side; thus it is also known as Parivartinī Ekādaśī.” Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira then asked of the Lord\, “O Janārdana\, please clear up a question I have. How is it that the Supreme Lord sleeps and then turns over on His side? O Lord\, when You are asleep what happens to all the other living entities? Please also tell me how You bound the king of the demons\, Bali Mahārāja\, as well as how one may please the brāhmaṇas. How does one observe Cāturmāsya. Kindly be merciful to me and answer these questions.” \nThe Supreme Personality of God Śrī Kṛṣṇa replied\, “O Yudhiṣṭhira\, lion among Kings\, I will gladly narrate to you an historical event that\, simply by hearing\, eradicates all one‟s sinful reactions. \n“In the Tretā-yuga there once was a king of the name Bali. Though born in a demonic dynasty\, he was very devoted to Me. He sang many Vedic hymns to Me and performed the homa rituals just to satisfy Me. He respected the twice-born brāhmaṇas and engaged them in performing sacrifices daily. This great soul had a quarrel with Indra\, however\, and eventually defeated him in battle. Bali took over his entire celestial kingdom\, which I Myself had given to Indra. Therefore Indra and all the other demigods\, along with many great sages\, approached Me and complained about Bali Mahārāja. Bowing their heads to the ground and offering many sacred prayers from the Vedas\, they worshipped Me along with their spiritual master\, Bṛhaspati. Thus I agreed to appear on their behalf as a dwarf Vāmanadev\, My fifth incarnation.” \nKing Yudhiṣṭhira asked\, “O Lord\, how was it possible for You to conquer such a powerful demon in a dwarf‟s body? Please explain this clearly\, for I am Your faithful devotee.” \nThe Supreme Lord\, Śrī Kṛṣṇa replied\, “Though a dwarf\, I was a brāhmaṇa\, and I approached that pious king Bali to ask him for alms in the form of land. I said\, „O Bali\, please give Me just three steps of land in charity. Such a small piece of land will be good as all the three worlds for Me.‟ Bali agreed to grant My request without lengthy consideration. But as soon as he vowed to give Me the land\, My body began to expand into a gigantic transcendental form. I covered the entire Earth with My feet\, all the Bhuvarloka with My thighs\, the Svarga heavens with My waist\, Maharloka with My stomach\, Janaloka with My chest\, Tapoloka with My neck\, and Satyaloka with My head and face. I covered the entire material creation. Indeed\, all the planets of the universe\, including the Sun and the Moon\, were encompassed by My gigantic form.” \n“Seeing this astonishing pastime of Mine\, all the demigods\, including Indra and Śeṣa\, the king of the snakes\, began to sing Vedic hymns and offer prayers to Me. Then I took Bali by the hand and said to him\, „O sinless one\, I have covered the whole Earth with one step and all the heavenly planets with the second. Now where shall I place My foot to measure the third step of land you promised Me?‟ \n“Upon hearing this\, Bali Mahārāja bowed down in humility and offered Me his head to place My third step. O Yudhiṣṭhira\, I placed My foot on his head and sent him all the way to Pātālaloka. Seeing him thus humbled\, I became very pleased and told Bali that henceforth I would permanently reside in his palace. Thereafter\, on Parivartinī Ekādaśī\, which occurs during the light part of the month of Bhādra\, Bali\, the son of Virocana\, installed a Deity form of Me in his residence. \n“O king\, until Haribodhinī Ekādaśī\, which occurs during the light part of the month of Kārtika\, I continue to sleep in the ocean of milk. The merit one accumulates during this period is particularly powerful. One should therefore observe Parivartinī Ekādaśī carefully. Indeed\, it is especially purifying and thus cleanses one of all sinful reactions. On this day the faithful devotee should worship Lord Trivikrama\, Vāmanadeva\, who is the supreme father\, because on this day I turn over to sleep on My other side.\n“If possible\, on this day one should give a qualified person some yogurt mixed with rice\, as well as some silver\, and then remain awake throughout the night. This simple observance will free one of all material conditioning. One who observes this sacred Parivartinī Ekādaśī in the way I have described will surely attain all kinds of happiness in this world and the kingdom of God in the hereafter. One who simply hears this narration with devotion will go to the abode of the demigods and shine there like the Moon itself\, so powerful is observance of this Ekādaśī. Indeed\, this observance is as powerful as the performance of a thousand horse sacrifices.” \nThus ends the narration of the glories of Parivartinī Ekādaśī\, or Vāmana Ekādaśī\, which occurs during the light part of the month of Bhādrapada\, from the Brahmā-vaivarta Purāṇa.

SUMMARY:Ajā Ekādaśī Vrataṁ – Bhādrapada kṛṣṇa pakṣa
DESCRIPTION:BREAKING THE FAST ON NEXT DAY.  \nYudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja said\, “O Janārdana\, protector of all living entities\, please tell me the name of the Ekādaśī that occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Bhādrapada. [August-September] \nThe Supreme Lord\, Śrī Kṛṣṇa\, replied\, “O king\, hear me attentively. The name of this sin-removing\, sacred Ekādaśī is Ajā. Any person who fasts completely on this day and worships Hṛṣikeśa\, the master of the senses\, becomes free of all reactions to his sins. Even one who simply hears about this Ekādaśī is freed from his past sins. O king\, there is no better day than this in all the earthly and heavenly worlds. This is true without a doubt. \n“There once lived a famous king named Hariścandra\, who was the emperor of the world and a person of great truth and integrity. His wife’s name was Candramatī\, and he had a son named Lohitāśva. By the force of destiny\, however\, Hariścandra lost his great kingdom and sold his wife and son. The pious king himself became a menial servant of a dog-eater\, who made him guard a crematorium. Yet even while doing such menial service\, he did not forsake his truthfulness and good character\, just as soma-rasa\, even when mixed with some other liquid\, does not lose its ability to bestow immortality. \n“The king passed many years in this condition. Then one day he sadly thought\, `What shall I do? Where should I go? How can I be delivered from this plight?’ In this way he drowned in an ocean of anxiety and sorrow. \n“One day a great sage happened by\, and when the king saw him he happily thought\, ‘Ah\, Lord Brahmā has created brāhmaṇas just to help others.’ Hariścandra paid his respectful obeisances to the sage\, whose name was Gautama Muni. With joined palms the king stood before Gautama and narrated his pitiful story. Gautama Muni was astonished to hear the king’s tale of woe. He thought\, `How has this mighty king been reduced to collecting clothes from the dead!’ Gautama became very compassionate toward Hariścandra and instructed him on the process of fasting for purification. \n“Gautama Muni said\, ‘O king\, during the dark fortnight of the month of Bhādrapada there occurs an especially meritorious Ekādaśī named Ajā\, which removes all sins. Indeed\, this Ekādaśī is so auspicious that if you simply fast on that day and perform no other austerity\, all your sins will be nullified. By your good fortune it is coming in just seven days. So I urge you to fast on this day and remain awake through the night. If you do so\, all the reactions of your past sins will come to an end. O Hariścandra\, I have come here because of your past pious deeds. Now\, all good fortune to you in the future!’ So saying\, the great sage Gautama immediately disappeared. \n“King Hariścandra followed Gautama’s instructions concerning fasting on the sacred day of Ajā Ekādaśī. O Yudhiṣṭhira\, because the king fasted on that day\, the reactions to his sins were completely destroyed at once. O lion among kings\, just see the influence of this Ekādaśī fast! It immediately vanquishes whatever miseries one may be suffering as a result of past sinful activities. Thus all Hariścandra’s miseries were relieved. Just by the power of this wonderful Ekādaśī\, he was reunited with his wife and son\, who had died but were now revived. In heaven the demigods began beating their celestial kettledrums and showering down flowers upon Hariścandra\, his queen\, and his son. By the blessings of the Ekādaśī fast\, he regained his kingdom without difficulty. Moreover\, when King Hariścandra left this planet\, his relatives and all his subjects went with him to the spiritual world. \n“O Pāṇḍava\, whoever fasts on Ajā Ekādaśī is surely freed from all his sins and ascends to the spiritual world. And whoever hears and studies the glories of this Ekādaśī achieves the merit gained by performing a horse sacrifice.” \n  \nThus ends the narration of the glories of Bhādrapada-kṛṣṇa Ekādaśī\, or Ajā Ekādaśī\, from the Brahmā vaivarta Purāṇa.
