Ekadasi and Shashti Vratam

Can any one tell me the importance of ekadasi and shashti vratams and how to observe them?

Hi Jaldeep

Please visit the Religious and Spirituality Sub-Forum. Hope you will get detailed answers from experts like ChitVish.

Thank you Vijee for you reply. I sent a PM to Chitvish;Unfortunately, she said that she was not familiar with vrathams.

Jaldeep
