Papmochani Ekadashi Puja Vidhi
- On the day of Papmochani Ekadashi, wake up at sunrise and complete your daily routines, including bathing. After that, take a vow for the fast and then begin the worship.
- Then offer water, yellow flowers, a garland, yellow sandalwood, and Akshat (unbroken rice) to Lord Vishnu.
- After this, offer bananas along with other offerings, and be sure to include Tulsi, as it is very dear to Lord Vishnu.
- After this, light a ghee lamp and incense. Then, read the Ekadashi Vrat Katha with devotion. Reading the Katha is essential, as the fast is considered incomplete without it.
- On the next day, i.e., Dwadashi, perform the puja again and donate to Brahmins. After this, break the fast during the Parana Muhurat.
