The Real Significance of Ekadasi (Srila Sridhar Maharaj explains)

Why do we fast on Ekādaśī? Is it only because pāpa (sin) enters into grains on that day, or is it something deeper than that? In this talk given on February 19th 1982, Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja explains the true significance of Ekādaśī as the day when Śrī Kṛṣṇa feels more necessity to enjoy. He also explains about the significance of Dvādaśī.
