Ekadasi is a wonderful opportunity for all spiritual followers to show their devotional service and come
closer to Krishna. The day is of fasting and prayers. It is usually observed by a partially fast. The day is
spiritually beneficial. One who fasts on this day is considered to become free from the malefic planetary influences, becomes happy, gains peace of mind to think of Ishvara to attain moksha.

In this way time can be saved for spiritual and religious activity, and one can purify himself both externally and internally.
