All glories to Srila Prabhupad,
Ekadashi observation is an important step forward God's satisfaction. According to Vaisnav Philosophy, to keep away from some grains on the day develops one devotee's status,which he desires of. It is said in the "SASTRA" that sin stays in some grains on the day of The Ekadashi. So these grains are avoided in eating on the day,despite these are Maha Prasad. However the 'ANU KALPA SEVAN' is recommended for the day of 'The Ekadashi'............ Jay Shri "PARSWA EKADASHI" ki jay.
(HARE KRISHNA)
