Ekadashi in June 2025: What is the significance

Ekadashi is regarded as one of the holiest days in the Hindu calendar, dedicated entirely to the worship of Lord Vishnu. On this spiritually significant day, devotees observe fasting and engage in prayers to seek His divine blessings. In the month of June, two important Ekadashi observances will take place—Nirjala Ekadashi and Yogini Ekadashi—both considered highly auspicious.

Nirjala Ekadashi holds special significance, as it involves a strict fast where devotees abstain from both food and water. This intense form of fasting is what gives it the name "Nirjala," meaning "without water." It is believed that observing Nirjala Ekadashi with full devotion grants the spiritual merit of all 24 Ekadashis observed throughout the year.

Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe, is believed to absolve the sins of those who worship Him with unwavering faith and dedication. On Ekadashi, devotees commit themselves wholeheartedly to the fast, practicing celibacy and steering clear of any tamasik (negative or impure) actions, thereby purifying their minds and souls.

• Wake up early in the morning and take a bath before beginning the puja rituals.
• Clean the house thoroughly, especially the puja room.
• Place a wooden plank and set idols of Lord Vishnu, Lord Krishna, and Laddu Gopal on it, along with the Shree Yatra if available.
• Bathe the idols and return them to their original positions.
• Light a diya with desi ghee in front of the deities.
• Take a sankalp (vow) to observe the fast with sincerity, purity, and devotion.
• Offer Tulsi leaves, fresh fruits, and panchamrit to the deities.
• Chant the Krishna Maha Mantra 108 times.
• In the evening, perform another round of prayers, recite the katha (story) of the specific Ekadashi, and sing the aarti of Lord Vishnu and Lord Krishna.
• Do not pluck Tulsi leaves on the day of Ekadashi.
• While fruits and dairy products may be consumed on regular Ekadashis, Nirjala Ekadashi calls for complete fasting without food or water.

• The fast concludes the next day, on Dwadashi Tithi, during the designated Parana time.
