About Padmini Ekadashi
Observed only in years with an extra lunar month. It carries special weight in tradition as an opportunity for worship, charity and discipline during the Adhika month.
How it is observed
- Grains (rice, wheat, pulses) and beans are traditionally avoided; fruit, milk, nuts, sabudana and kuttu are common.
- Many avoid onion, garlic, meat and alcohol, and keep the day for prayer, japa and reading scripture.
- The fast is broken the next morning (Parana) within the Parana window, after sunrise and before Dwadashi ends.
