Amalaki Ekadashi, also known as Rangbhari Ekadashi, will be observed on February 27, 2026, according to Hindu Panchang calculations. Devotees fast and worship Lord Vishnu and the sacred Amla tree, believed to bring prosperity and spiritual merit. The Ekadashi tithi begins early on February 27 and ends the same day, with Parana (fast-breaking) observed the following morning. Rituals include puja with or without an Amla tree, and in Varanasi, the day marks the start of Holi celebrations blending Vaishnav and Shaiv traditions.
