Ekādaśī is a three-day discipline. Preparation begins on Daśamī.

1

Daśamī · Day of Preparation (Samyama)

Eat a single light sattvic meal before sunset. Avoid heavy grains, lentils, or eating late at night. Take a holy bath and resolve for the fast.

2

Ekādaśī · Day of Fast & Vigil (Vrata)

Sunday, January 31, 2072 · Begins 6:45 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, 1 February 2072 · Pāraṇā Window: 6:45 AM – 9:39 AM

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