Minority tradition: Gayatri Jayanti on Jyeshtha Shukla Ekadashi

[Vriddhi Ekadashi — Day 2] Ekadashi spanned two consecutive sunrises (Type 3 — Vriddhi). Per Nirnayasindhu, this second day is the prescribed fast day so that Parana correctly falls during Dwadashi on the following morning.

• Fasting
• Vishnu worship
• Tulasi puja
• Dwadashi parana
