Ekadashi 2021 dates and timings are provided below for the reference of those who wish to keep a vrat (fast) on Ekadashi day. As per Hindu calendar, Ekadashi is the eleventh lunar day of each of the two lunar phases - Shukla Paksa and the Krishna Paksa. Hence, there are two Ekadashi days in a Hindu calendar month. Most of the Hindu devotees worship Lord Vishnu on the day of Ekadashi.

On the day of Ekadashi, devotees keep a strict fast and break their fast on the next day only after sunrise. Devotees can choose to observe vrat without water or with only water or with only fruits. As per Hindu religion, those who fast on Ekadashi are considered to get rid of malefic planetary influences, blessed with happiness, and gain the right peace of mind to think of God and attain Moksha.
