Ekadashi Vratam

Ekadasi refers to the eleventh day of a fortnight belonging to a lunar month. There are two fortnights in a lunar month—the bright and the dark. So, Ekadasi occurs twice in a month, in the bright fortnight and the dark fortnight. The special feature of Ekadasi, as most people know it, is a fast, abstinence from diet.so, we call this Ekadasi vratam.
The main aspect of this Ekadasi Vratham is for self control (i.e.) focusing our entire soul towards Sriman Narayanan. And for an every Hindu, this Vratham is one of the best viradham that he/she should follow and this is said to be the best way to pass through the doors of Sri Vaikundam to get the Dharshan of Sri Vishnu.
The first and foremost thing about ekadasi is it comes twice in a month. And the main reason of observe ekadsi to increases spiritual advancement, so one have to chant or hear holy names, or read bhagavatam, geetha etc. which will help you in thinking of supreme personality the whole day.
