Vaishnav Yogini Ekadashi’s grand coincidence on July 1st, along with 3 auspicious yogas, know the exact timing of Rahukaal and Parana.


According to the Hindu Sanatan Panchang, today i.e. Saturday, July 11, 2026, is full of very important and rare coincidences from the religious and spiritual point of view. Today, Dwadashi Tithi of Krishna Paksha of Ashadh month will last till 02:05 AM, after which Trayodashi Tithi will start. The biggest feature of today’s day is that the followers of Vaishnav tradition (Sanyasis and Vishnu temples) are observing the fast of ‘Gauna Yogini Ekadashi’ today. Along with this, in today’s calendar, a unique Triveni Mahasyoga of Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga, Amrit Siddhi Yoga and Tripushkar Yoga is being formed, which is considered best for starting any new work and worshiping God.

Date difference and rule of observing fast: Understand the complete mathematics of Smartha and Vaishnav tradition.

This year, there was confusion among the devotees across the country regarding the exact date of Yogini Ekadashi, the main reason for which is the almanac rules of Smarta and Vaishnav beliefs. The householders (Smarta tradition) have successfully completed the Ekadashi fast yesterday i.e. on 10th July as per the rules of Udayakalin Tithi. In such a situation, for all the devotees observing fast on 10th July, it is according to the scriptures to break the fast during Dwadashi Tithi today, 11th July. The most auspicious and accurate time to perform Parana today will be from 05:21 am to 09:59 am. On the other hand, the Vaishnav devotees who are taking the pledge of Ekadashi fast today on July 11, will break their fast on the next day i.e. Sunday, July 12 between 05:22 am to 08:09 am.
