Nirjala Ekadashi 2026: Date, Muhurat, Parana, and Why Bhima Observed This Tough Fast
•Nirjala Ekadashi is observed on Jyeshtha Shukla Ekadashi Tithi and is considered the most rewarding among all Ekadashi fasts.
•The fast is unique as it requires abstaining from water for the entire Ekadashi Tithi, from sunrise to sunrise the next day, making it very challenging, especially in summer.
•Observing Nirjala Ekadashi once grants spiritual merit equivalent to observing all Ekadashi fasts throughout the year, erasing sins and bestowing Lord Vishnu's blessings.
•In 2026, Nirjala Ekadashi will be observed on June 25, with the Tithi beginning on June 24 at 6:12 PM and ending on June 25 at 8:09 PM.
•The auspicious time for puja on June 25 is from 05:25 AM to 07:10 AM, and the fast can be broken (Parana) on June 26 between 5:25 AM and 8:13 AM.
