Paush Putrada Ekadashi, also known as Putrada Ekadashi Vrat, will be observed on Thursday, January 13, 2022. On this day, devotees of Lord Vishnu observe fasting.

Ekadashi is one of the most important days in the Hindu calendar. Interestingly, there are two Ekadashis in a month: One falls during Krishna Paksha (the waning phase of the Moon) and the second at the time of Shukla Paksha (the waxing phase of the moon).

Significance:

According to beliefs, Putrada Ekadashi Vrat is most significant for couples wishing to have a child. Hence, it is believed that married couples who observe the Putrada Ekadashi Vrat are blessed with children and good fortune.

According to drikpanchang.com, Ekadashi fasting on both days (the two Ekadashis falling every month) is suggested for staunch devotees who seek for love and affection of Lord Vishnu.
