Nirjala Ekadashi 2025: Fasts and festivals related to water have special significance in the month of Jyeshtha because at this time the heat is at its peak. In such a situation, donating water and fasting without water is considered very fruitful from a religious point of view. It is believed that by observing this fast, one attains happiness and prosperity throughout the year. For this reason, Nirjala Ekadashi, which comes this month, is considered very sacred.
By fasting on this Ekadashi, one gets virtue equal to all the 24 Ekadashis of the year. Usually, this fast is 24 hours, but this year this period will be longer. Let us know the reason behind this.
For how long will Nirjala Ekadashi be observed?
The date of Nirjala Ekadashi will start on June 6, 2025, at 2:15 am and will remain till 4:47 am on June 7. This time the date of Ekadashi will remain for about 24 hours and there is a coincidence of Udayatithi on both days. According to religious texts, when Ekadashi falls on two dates, the householders should keep fast on the first day.
Paran time
This time the duration of the fast has increased to more than 24 hours because the fast will be broken the next day in the afternoon. The time of breaking the fast is going to be between 1:44 pm to 4:31 pm on June 7, 2025.
Ekadashi for sanyasis
Those who are on the path of renunciation or wish for salvation can keep the fast of Ekadashi on June 7. This day is considered as Ekadashi in the Vaishnav sect and ISKCON temples. Those who keep fast on this day should break the fast between 5:23 am to 7:17 am on June 8, 2025.
What to do before Ekadashi fast?
To maintain the purity of the fast, devotees should stop consuming grains from the evening of Dashami so that there is no trace of food in the body at the beginning of the fast on Ekadashi.
