OCT22THU

Ekadashi is a sacred day of fasting and devotion, observed twice every month as instructed by Bhagwan Swaminarayan in the Shikshapatri. Devotees keep a nirjala, farali, or ekṭāṇu vrat according to their ability, and spend the day in darshan, katha, kirtan, mala, and remembrance of Bhagwan Swaminarayan. Observing Ekadashi with faith purifies the mind, strengthens self-control, and brings one closer to Bhagwan.
