Utpanna Ekadashi 2021: Every lunar month in the Hindu calendar brings an opportunity for spiritual purification, and Utpanna Ekadashi is among the most potent. “Utpanna”—literally “that which is arisen”—marks a time of rebirth and renewal through the energy of Lord Vishnu.

What Is Utpanna Ekadashi 2021? The Rebirth through Devotion
Timing and Meaning
Utpanna Ekadashi occurs on the 11th day of the waxing moon in the month of Margashirsha (November–December). Utpanna Ekadashi will be on December 3, 2021, which falls on Friday.
The term “Utpanna” literally means “risen” or “arisen”—implying a rebirth of spirit, strength, and hope through the worship of Lord Vishnu. That is why Utpanna Ekadashi is also known as Mahadvadasi, a period of profound spiritual renewal.
Origins and Mythological Significance: Utpanna Ekadashi 2021
The Legend of King Abhakara
It is the legend of King Abhakara, a pious king whose kingdom became victim to drought, famine, and mental despair. He had worshipped Lord Vishnu and followed Utpanna Ekadashi with total dedication. At that time, Vishnu appeared before him and showered the kingdom with peace, prosperity, and rain.
This myth motivates us to see Utpanna Ekadashi as an inspiration for personal renewal, social peace, and communal betterment.
Cosmic Congruence in 2021
Utpanna Ekadashi in 2021 occurs on favourable astrological positions, particularly Jupiter transit and waxing gibbous Moon. These add to the spiritual energy of rebirth, prosperity, and purifying by devotion to Lord Vishnu.
Astroeshop astrologers affirm that unassuming fasting and authentic rituals on Utpanna Ekadashi in these celestial hours can enormously enhance inner knowledge, fortune, and equilibrium.
How to Practice Utpanna Ekadashi 2021 Properly
1. Preparation and Sankalpa
Begin the morning almost at sunrise with a purifying bath, ideally in Ganga water.
Wear clean, light-colored apparel—ideally saffron or white.
Face east or north, light a lamp, and utter a sankalpa aloud:
“I vow to observe Utpanna Ekadashi vrat with dedication, to purify my mind and soul.”
Astroeshop offers personalised sankalpa mantras from your birth chart for added spiritual energy.
2. Observing the Fast
The two fasts allowed are Nirjala (nothing, not even water or food) or Phalahar (milk, fruits, vrat food).
Don’t use onion, garlic, alcohol, and all tamasic food.
Be silent or reflect before talking to maintain the energy, peace and centre.
By remaining pure, you provide the cosmic channels of grace with a way in and establish powerful inner alignment.
3. Pooja and Worship Rituals
Set up an altar with photos or statues of Lord Vishnu—ideally Narayana or Krishna form.
Offer these items:
- Tulsi leaves, favourite
- Rice, milk, and flowers
- Ghee lamp (diya)
Chant:
“Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya,” ideally 108 times
Or use the shorter “Om Utpanna Vishnave Namah”
Astroeshop can provide Vishnu pooja kits, tulasI malas, and guidance to make your worship easy and respectful.
4. Charity and Seva—The Heart of Utpanna Ekadashi 2021
Charity is the essence of Utpanna Ekadashi:
Donate rice, clothing, blankets, cooking gas or other essentials to the needy.
Give services, cooking for the elderly or serving at a homeless shelter.
Astroeshop’s Akshaya Daan guide helps you select charity items which will complement your astrological chart and your planetary blessings.

5. Chanting and Evening Prayers
Evening before moonrise:
Switch on another lamp and incense.
Chant the Vishnu Sahasranama or a short mantra session.
Sit calmly and reflect upon your intentions and spiritual path since morning.
Astroeshop offers audio recordings of Vishnu Sahasranama recited by experienced pandits, perfect to listen to in the evening.
6. Parana on Dwadasi
On the following lunar day, Dwadasi, pre-dawn:
Break the fast by giving food to a priest or the poor.
Light breakfast, such as vrat-acceptable khichdi.
End with blessings from priests or elders.
