What is Ekadashi?
Ekadashi is a sacred day for Hindus that occurs twice a month, on the eleventh day of the waxing and waning moon. It is considered an auspicious day for spiritual activities such as fasting, meditation, and prayer. Observing Ekadashi is believed to purify the mind and body, and bring one closer to God.
It is the eleventh day of the lunar cycle in the Hindu calendar. It is considered to be a very auspicious day and is often observed by fasting. However, it can be difficult to remember when Ekadashi is coming up, especially if you have a busy schedule. That’s where Ekadashi reminders come in handy.
Significance of Ekadashi
Ekadashi is considered a powerful day for spiritual growth and purification. It is believed that on this day, the spiritual energy is heightened, and one can easily connect with the divine.
Fasting on Ekadashi is believed to help one control their senses and overcome material desires. It is also believed to improve one’s physical and mental health.
Ekadashi Dates
There are two types of Ekadashi: Shukla Paksha (waxing moon) and Krishna Paksha (waning moon). Each type occurs twice a month, resulting in a total of 24 Ekadashi days in a year.
The dates of Ekadashi may vary depending on the lunar calendar and the geographical location.

Why I made this Ekadashi Reminder Automation for my Mother?
I’ve got a little story to share with you today, one that involves my dear mom and a clever tech solution I came up with.
You see, in our family, we follow a tradition of fasting on Ekadashi, which falls on the 11th day of every lunar fortnight. It’s a special day for spiritual observance, and one of the key rules is avoiding rice.
Now, this might not sound like a big deal, but for my mom, it used to be a challenge because she’d often forget the date.
So, there she was, occasionally missing Ekadashi vrat (fast) because it was tough to keep track of. You can imagine how disappointed she’d feel. That’s when I decided it was time to bring technology into the picture and help her out.
I wanted to create something simple, efficient, and accessible, and that’s when I came up with the idea of using an SMS automation to send her a reminder when there’s an Ekadashi.
She does not use email much, hence I set SMS for her. And guess what? It worked like a charm!
Now, a day before Ekadashi, my mother gets an SMS.
I know what you’re thinking, and yes, I’m more than happy to help you set this up for yourself or anyone in your family. You don’t need any Ekadashi Reminder App or install any Ekadashi Reminder App in Android or iPhone.
It’s all about blending tradition with technology to make our lives easier and more meaningful. So, here’s to never forgetting Ekadashi and keeping our spiritual journeys on track! 🙏✨
