Hare Krishna,
today i listen that have a history about why we don't eat grains and cereals in Ekadashi days. But devotes didn't remenber very well the history. Is anyone that knows that?
i know the history about Ekadashi devi dasi, now i would like to know the history about why not eat grains and cereals in this days.
Thank you.

These days Sin personified is allowed to enter and stay in grains by the blessings of Lord Hari;
So Devotees avoid a single grain; Because each grain is full of sins.
Also it says that on 11th days of full and dark Moon liquid in the body becomes active;
Grains give power to the body; But if we give power to the body when liquid is active it will increase lusty desires;
Automatically these two days living beings become lusty, so Devotees try to decrease that lust by fasting; not feeding the senses; to dry the liquid.
Your servant,
