DESCRIPTION:

Mohini Ekadashi is a Hindu fast to free the soul from illusion. It is believed that whomsoever observes a total fast on this sacred day will collect future benefits and live happily in this life and the next. Hindus believe in reincarnation. Adherence to this day's customs is thought to release one from suffering and misery.

Lord Krishna states that "There is no place of pilgrimage, no sacrifice, and no charity that can bestow merit equal to even one sixteenth of the merit a faithful devotee of Mine obtains by observing Mohini Ekadashi; and he who hears and studies the glories of Mohini Ekadashi achieves the merit of giving away one thousand cows in charity."

The Hindu word "Ekadashi" refers to the eleventh day of the waxing and waning lunar phases in the Hindu calendar, a sacred day for Hindu devotees observed as a day of fasting, prayer, and spiritual purification.
The word "Ekadashi" is derived from the Sanskrit language, where "eka" means "one" and "dashi" means "ten." " Put together, Ekadashi" means "the eleventh," referring to the eleventh day of each lunar phase.

There are 24 Ekadashi days in the Hindu lunar year, with each Ekadashi having its significance and associated rituals.

PLEASE NOTE:
We use the Indian civil calendar, the official holiday calendar in India. The Hindu faith has many calendars, each specific to different regions and tribes, with dates and celebrations marked by differing positions of the sun, moon, and stars. Names of months and holidays and the corresponding dates in the Gregorian calendar may vary widely from one calendar to the next. Determine the proper calendar before attending local events.
