Margashirsh #MokshadaEkadashi
On #ThisDay Shri Krishna gave Geeta Gyaan to Arjun. #GeetaJayanti

This Ekadashi is known as Chinta Mani-Mukti Dvaar, become one with Krishna, chant:
ॐ नमो भगवते वासुदेवाय।

So what’s the science behind #Ekadashi 1/n
Ekaadasha = 11
The 11th lunar day of both lunar phases, Shukl paksh (brightening moon) & Krishna paksh (fading moon),is Ekadashi
During Shukl Paksh the moon appears 3/4 full & during Krishna paksh it appears 3/4 dark.
There’re 24 #Ekadashi s in year, 2 more in the leap year
2/n
Due to the orbital path combination of the sun,moon & the earth
the air pressure in atmosphere changes to extremes on both poornima & amavasya
as can be seen in tidal waves which are rough & high but calm on the next day indicating the decreased pressure

1day for Devaloka is equal to 12 months of Human time span. 6months is considered half a day for Gods. Maha vishnu sleeps and wakes up on the Vaikunta Ekadashi of Margasheersha (December) I.e end of 6months.

Thread - Nirjala Ekadashi -2020
The 11th lunar day of Jyestha month when the sun transits in Taurus sign is celebrated as waterless fast in terms of Nirjala Ekadashi or #BhimseniEkadashi. The 2nd June of the year 2020 is the day of waterless fast from the sunrise of 1/10 Image
Ekadashi tithi to the sunrise of Dwadashi tithi.

The reason behind Waterless fast -
The heat is at its peak but faith in Lord Vishnu is insuppressible and it’s this faith that makes devotees stay without water whole day and night long. The one who keeps this tough fast is 1/10
saved from going to hell(Narak). The fast is rigid but this one fast provides the benefit of all 24-Ekadashi fasts. The Lord Vishu himself has mentioned that one who keeps this rigid fast is granted exemption from sinful deeds and reaps the benefit of all Ekadashi fasting. 2/10
