Ekādaśī · Day of Fast & Vigil (Vrata)

Friday, November 3, 1775 · Begins 6:37 AM (Sunrise)

Complete fast from sunrise to sunrise (water-only, fruits, or Nirjala as per capacity). Continuous prayer, chanting, and night vigil (Jāgaraṇa).

Dvādaśī · Breaking the Fast (Pāraṇā)

Saturday, 4 November 1775 · Pāraṇā Window: 6:37 AM – 9:32 AM
