Hindu devotees especially vaishnavas believe ekadeshi is very auspicious day. Some devotees undergo fasting on this day even without drinking water. Some devotees who cannot be able undergo fasting for the whole day can eat once a day. Devotee who fast on this day will get rid of all sins. People who undergo fasting, perform poojas and other rituals will attract the blessings of Lord Vishnu. Though ekadeshi comes in every lunar month, some ekadeshi is considered to be very important.
The Utpanna Ekadashi holds greater significance amongst all the Ekadashis celebrated in the country. This one is related to the start of Ekadashi fasting tradition. According to drikpanchang. It is believed that Goddess Ekadashi came to life from Lord Vishnu, to kill the demon Mur, who conspired to harm the sleeping Vishnu. The Ekadashi Goddess is therefore endowed with the utmost power and is seen as a shield of protectiveness. So, Utpanna Ekadashi is widely celebrated as the birth anniversary of Ekadashi—the day she was born.
Several devotees, who decide to observe the fast yearly, begin their fasting ritual from Utpanna Ekadashi. Parana stands for breaking the fast.
On this day, devotees should wake up early in the morning and pledge to fast for the day during the early morning prayer. Fasting can be observed in two ways- nirahar and falahar. People who fast on this day, can consume food after evening prayers of Lord Vishnu. However, Ekadashi Parana Vidhi is completed on the next day of the fast on the Dwadashi day. The process of breaking the Ekadashi fast after its completion is called Ekadashi Vrat Parana.
This is performed on the following day of Ekadashi, i. Dwadashi, after the sun rises. It is of utmost importance that Ekadashi Parana is performed on the Dwadashi tithi only, and specifically in the first quarter of the day, which is also called as Hari vasar. It is believed that serving food to a Brahmin or helping the poor on Dwadashi tithi should be done.
For every fast there is a different Ekadashi Vrat Katha. Vaikuntha Ekadashi and Ashadi Ekadashi are the most celebrated. On Dwadashi twelfth day , the day after Ekadashi, the routine of Dashami is to be followed.
Have your bath early in the morning and offer prayers to Lord Vishnu by lighting a diya earthen lamp. The fast can be broken by eating food prepared on the day of Dashami.
