Overview
- Parama Ekadashi will be observed on Thursday, June 11, 2026, and is the Ekadashi that falls during the extra lunar month known as Adhik Maas.
- Multiple outlets citing Drik Panchang have published muhurat and parana windows, with common parana ranges on June 12 reported roughly between about 5:23–9:00 AM depending on the source.
- Guides across publications advise standard puja and vrata steps: rise at Brahma muhurta, bathe, clean the home temple, chant Vishnu mantras, and keep a fast that may be strict or moderated to fruits and milk.
- Breaking the fast (parana) must occur during the Dwadashi tithi to retain traditional merit, so outlets give precise morning windows and advise devotees to follow the local panchang if timings differ.
- Parama Ekadashi is treated as highly meritorious in tradition—scriptures compare its benefit to major sacrifices—and lifestyle pieces add customary practices such as lighting ghee lamps, offering tulsi and donating to the needy.
