- Install the idol of Lord Vishnu and Mahalakshmi. Perform Abhishekam of the Lord with water, milk and Panchamrit. If Abhishekam is performed with Dakshinavarti Shankh, it will be very auspicious. After Abhishekam, adorn Lakshmi-Vishnu with garlands, flowers and new clothes.
- Light incense sticks and lamps. Offer sweets along with Tulsi. Offer seasonal fruits. Recite Vishnu Sahasranama, Bhagavad Gita or Vishnu Chalisa. Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevay mantra should be chanted during the puja.

- On the evening of Ekadashi, worship Vishnu-Lakshmi and Tulsi, light a lamp near Tulsi. The next day i.e. on Dwadashi Tithi, wake up early in the morning. Worship Lord Vishnu. Feed the needy people and give donations. After this, eat food yourself. In this way Ekadashi fast is completed.
Fasting gives rest to the digestive system
When we fast, we do not eat food and our digestive system gets a break from the work of digesting food. Fasting reduces problems like gas, acidity and indigestion. When we take a light and balanced diet, our digestive system digests these things easily. During fasting, one should keep drinking enough water and eat fruits to ensure that the body gets enough energy.
