ekadasyam samayantyam prapunantyam jagattrayam
sthatavyam annamasritya bhavata papa purusa
sansare yani papani tany eva ekadasi dine
annam asritya tisthanti sriman narayana ajnaya
(Padma Purana, Kriya Yogasara 22.46,50)
When Ekadasi arrives, at that time, all of the sins from the three worlds reside in grains in the form of a sinful person.
Whatever sins are available in this world, they all together reside in grains on Ekadasi day by the order of Lord Sri Narayana.
The 9th anga of sadhana is harivas-sammano “Respecting the days of Hari”. In illustration, Rupa Goswami quotes in BRS 1.2.109:
hari-vasara-sammano yatha brahma-vaivarte -
sarva-papa-prasamanam punyam atyantikam tatha |
govinda-smaranam nrnam ekadasy amuposanam ||
Respecting the Holy Days of Hari
Brahma-vaivarta Purana: “Ekadasi destroys all a person’s sin, bestows limitless piety, and causes them to remember Govinda.”
Thus, there are three aspects mentioned here to following Ekadasi (1) removal of bad karma, (2) gain of good karma, and (3) remembrance of Govinda.
