Shattila Ekadashi Vrata
Exclusive audio
षट्तिला एकादश्यां तिलदानं विशेषतः।
तिलहोमस्तिलयुक्तं स्नानं तिलमयः क्रतुः॥
तिलभोजनमत्यन्तं सर्वपापप्रणाशनम्।
तिलाः सर्वत्र विख्याता मुक्तिदानार्थकारणम्॥
Meaning:
On Shaṭṭilā Ekādaśī, offering sesame seeds (til) holds special importance.
Performing homa with sesame seeds, bathing with sesame-infused water, and offerings made of sesame seeds bring great spiritual merit.
Consuming sesame seeds destroys all sins.
Sesame seeds are renowned everywhere for their role in granting liberation.
Magh Krishna Paksha Ekadashi
Magh Krishna Paksha Ekadashi is Shattila Ekadashi. Shat means six and Tila means sesame seeds, these two words together have been called for this Ekadashi. According to which sesame is used in divine bathing, sesame is coated, sesame is burnt in hawan, sesame is offered as Pinda and Tarpan, sesame is eaten and sesame is donated.
There is a religious belief that those who observe the vrata of Shattila Ekadashi will stay in heaven for as many years as they use sesame seeds during the vrata. Similarly, like other Ekadashi vrata, it is believed that all the sins will be destroyed by observing the brat of Shattila Ekadashi. Shattila is called Shattila because sesame is used in six different ways during Ekadashi vrata.
Importance of sesame in shattila Ekadashi
Sesame is considered sacred in Sanatan civilization; it is considered important both religiously and spiritually. Sesame donation is considered very important in this Ekadashi. It is very important to donate sesame seeds and take the name of Lord Vishnu on this day.
It is also customary to cook sesame mixed khichdi and offer it to Bishnu during Shattila Ekadashi. Also, at night, sesame seeds are taken in hand and chanted 108 times om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevaya Swahu. Similarly, if there is a lack of materials to be offered to Bishnu, worship is also done by offering one hundred grains of supari (Betel Nut). There is a religious belief that physical purity and health can be obtained from the Vrata of Shattila Ekadashi.
It is described in Ekadashi Mahatmeya that one should worship Lord Vishnu on this day without any salt, oil, or other grains, visit the temples and purify one's mind.
May God's mercy be upon all. This Ekadashi should be used for the purification of both body and mind. Good luck.
