Just before going to “List of Ekadashi Fasting (Upavasam) Days Names | How many days fasting for Ekadashi? | What are the different types of Ekadashi fasting? | What time do you break Ekadashi fast?“, let us have a brief some brief information.
Let us learn the “List of Ekadashi fasting (upavasam) days”: “Hari din / Day of Hari – Ekadashi upavasam / fasting”.
Namaste mitragan / friends, first let us know the meaning of “Upavasam” –
“Upavasam or Upvas or Upavas or fasting” means, one should stay away from the banned things and should always think and do only the works which will make Lord Sri Vishnu / Sri Hari / Sri Krishna / Sri Rama happy.
The bhoga (luxury, lust etc.) things should not be done and used in any way at all on the GREAT Ekadashi fasting / Upavasam / Upvas / Upavas day.
When does the Ekadashi Fasting (Vrata) starts – When does the GREAT Ekadashi Vrata starts – Ekadhashi Vrata begins with the sankalpam on the Dashami day and then fasting on the Ekadashi day and doing Parana on Dwadashi day.
Since it is spread over three days it got the name ‘Dinatraya’ (here ‘dina’ means day and ‘traya’ means three).
Purification of all senses will happen by doing the Ekadashi Fasting (Vrata) –
Ekadashi / Eleven indriyas – This means the bad Karmas which we had done through the inner mind, Pancha / five jnanendriyas (nose – ghrana, eyes – caksu, tongue – rasana, skin – tvak and ears – srotra)
Pancha / five karmendriyas – (Vaak – speech, Paani – hands, Paada – feet, Paayu – excretory organ and Upastha – organ of reproduction) will be freed as soon as we start doing the GREAT Ekadashi Vrata.
YamaBhaada, Shani kaataas will be solved if one does the GREAT Ekadashi Vrata.
The ‘samudra manthana’ (ocean churning) took place on the Great Ekadashi day itself and on the ‘Dwadashi’ day Sri Mahalakshmi Devi got emerged from the ocean. This is very clearly said in the ‘Padma Purana’.
