2

Ekādaśī · Day of Fast & Vigil (Vrata)

Sunday, April 20, 1766 · Begins 6:27 AM (Sunrise)

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

3

Dvādaśī · Breaking the Fast (Pāraṇā)

Monday, 21 April 1766 · Pāraṇā Window: 6:51 AM – 9:34 AM

Morning bath, offer charity (dāna) to the needy or Brahmins, and break the fast strictly within the pāraṇā window before Dvādaśī ends.
