2

Ekādaśī · Day of Fast & Vigil (Vrata)

Thursday, February 24, 2287 · 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).

3

Dvādaśī · Breaking the Fast (Pāraṇā)

Friday, 25 February 2287 · Pāraṇā Window: 6:37 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.
