- Ekadashi fast should be broken with Tulsi leaves, but plucking Tulsi leaves on Dwadashi Tithi is prohibited. A non-fasting family member should pluck the leaves instead.
- While breaking the Ekadashi fast, first seek forgiveness from Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi for any mistakes and sins committed unknowingly.
- Break the fast before the end of the Dwadashi Tithi; otherwise, one may become accountable for sin.
