The eleventh day (ekadashi) of the dark (waning) half of the lunar month of Phalgun (February–March) is a religious celebration.
This is the eleventh-day observance devoted to the worship
of Vishnu, as is the case with all eleventh-day observances.
Most Hindu holidays have pre-determined ceremonies, which
generally include fasting (upavasa) and devotion, and frequently offer
particular rewards for loyal participation.
Those taking this vow should fill an earthen pot with the
seven varieties of grain, place an image of Vishnu on top of the pot, and
recite the names of Vishnu for twenty-four hours.
The pot of grain should be handed to a brahmin on the
twelfth.
In terms of outcomes, it is stated that diligently honoring
this festival would provide vijaya (victory) over poverty and sadness.
