Papankusha Ekadashi will be observed on Thursday, October 22, 2026. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the Hindu fasting day falls on the Ekadashi Tithi of Shukla Paksha in the month of Ashwin. Devotees observe a fast, offer prayers to Lord Vishnu and seek his blessings for spiritual growth and well-being. According to the Hindu calendar, the Ekadashi Tithi will begin on October 21 and end on October 22. Devotees observing the vrat should also note the Parana timings, as the fast is traditionally broken on the following day, Dwadashi.
