Mohini Ekadashi 2026 Parana Time: In the year 2026, the holy fast of Mohini Ekadashi is being observed on 27th April, Monday. According to the scriptures, this date of Shukla Paksha of Vaishakh month is considered very important, because on this day Lord Vishnu took the form of Mohini. The full fruit of any fast is achieved only when it is observed with full devotion and correct rules. The fast of Mohini Ekadashi will be broken the next day i.e. on Tuesday, 28th April. This holy date teaches us discipline and restraint. When we follow these rules, we experience mental peace. This time is a great opportunity to fulfill our old resolutions and fill new positive energy in life.

Exact time and auspicious time to break the fast

Correct method of Parana and necessary rules

• Purification and worship: On the day of Dwadashi, wake up early in the morning, take bath and once again briefly worship the Mohini form of Lord Vishnu.
• Donation: Before performing Parana, give donation or Dakshina to a needy person as per your devotion, it is considered very auspicious.
• Breaking the fast: According to the scriptures, it is best to break the Ekadashi fast by consuming basil leaves and water.
• Satvik diet: After breaking the fast, take full care of the purity of food and avoid eating too heavy or fried food.
• Service Price: Keep your mind calm the entire time and complete your fast with a spirit of service, this brings a feeling of kindness and compassion.

What to do if it is not passed by mistake?

Sometimes, unknowingly or due to some unavoidable reason, we are not able to break the fast at the scheduled time. In such a situation, instead of panicking, light a lamp in front of Lord Vishnu and apologize for your mistake. After this, go to a temple and donate raw grains, also called 'Seedha', to a Brahmin and only then perform your Parana. It is believed that by donating any kind of deficiency or defect during the fast is removed and God's blessings remain.

Scientific aspect of fasting

A big reason for eating light food on the next day of Ekadashi is that after 24 hours of fasting, our digestive system needs some time to become active again. Eating heavy food suddenly after having an empty stomach for a long time can put pressure on the stomach. Therefore, starting Parana with Tulsi and water helps to 'detox' the body and flush out impurities. This method is not only religious, but is also very beneficial from health point of view.
