Kamada Ekadashi (कामदा एकादशी) is a vrat, a fasting observance falling in the Hindu lunar month of चैत्र. Its position is fixed by tithi rather than by the Gregorian calendar, so the date moves every year and is computed from the panchang. Tradition keeps a fast on the day.
Kamada Ekadashi
कामदा एकादशी
Hindu month: चैत्र
Panchang Basis (Tithi Rule)
Each year this observance falls on the Ekadashi tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the Hindu month of Chaitra. Because lunar tithis drift against the Gregorian calendar, the English date shifts every year — the tithi rule above is what stays fixed.
