Devotees fast, keep vigil and worship Vishnu; the Puranas praise Ekadashi fasting as the foremost of vows.

Does the Devashayani Ekadashi date change from city to city?
Yes, it can. Devashayani Ekadashi is fixed by a tithi prevailing at a specific moment — sunrise, noon, sunset or midnight — and that moment is local. Moving west or east across longitudes can push the prevailing tithi across a civil-date boundary, so Mumbai, Kolkata or New York can observe a day apart from Delhi. Smarta and Vaishnava traditions also differ on some fasting days. The date above follows the popular North-Indian convention for Delhi; the Bela app recomputes for your exact location.
