In The Month Of Ashadha

(1) AshAdha suddha EkAdaSi: This is called as "toli Ekadashi" (First Ekadashi), also called as "SayanikAdashi". Lord Vishnu goes to sleep on this day, that is why this is called as "SayanikAdashi". Hindu Sanyasis, Swamis and people who have renounced desires start observing the famous "cAturmAsya" (4 months) on this EkAdashi day. Significance: (Ref: Magha purana) Observing this Ekadashi is very good for those who are suffering from chronic ailments. Who ever observes this Ekadashi for life long, from the 18th year onwards, then they will never suffer from Ailments, never fall sick.

(2) Ashadha Bahula EkAdaSi: Also called as "kAmayikAdashi". Significance: Those who observe this Ekadashi, will fulfill their desires, how ever great they may, which are not contrary to Dharma.
