Yogini Ekadashi

 
Yudhisthira Maharaja said, "O Supreme Lord, I have E heard the glories of Nirjala Ekadashi, which occurs during the light fortnight of the month of Jyestha. Now I wish to hear about the Ekadashi that occurs during the dark part of the month of Asadha (June-July). Kindly describe it to me in detail, O killer of the Madhu demon."

The Supreme Lord, Shri Krishna, replied, "O king, I shall tell you about the best of all fasting days, the Ekadashi that comes during the dark part of the month of Asadha. Famous as Yogini Ekadashi it removes all kinds of sinful reactions and awards supreme liberation.

O best of kings, this Ekadashi delivers people who are drowning in the vast ocean of material existence and transports them to the shore of the spiritual world. In all the three worlds, it is the chief of all sacred fasting days. I shall reveal this truth to you by narrating a history recounted in the Puranas.
