Amalaki Ekadashi 2026 Observed on February 27 with Fasting and Rituals

Amalaki Ekadashi, also known as Rangbhari Ekadashi, will be observed on Friday, February 27, 2026, during the Phalguna Shukla Paksha. Devotees fast and worship Lord Vishnu, the sacred Amla tree, and in some traditions, Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. The Ekadashi tithi begins shortly after midnight on February 26 but is observed on February 27 following the Udaya Tithi rule. Parana, the fast-breaking ritual, is scheduled for the morning of February 28. The day holds spiritual significance, believed to bring prosperity, remove obstacles, and mark the start of Holi festivities in places like Varanasi.
