Frequently asked
When is the next Ekadasi in Chicago?
The next Ekadasi in Chicago is Wednesday, 21 October 2026; ekadasi thithi 3:42 am – 4:18 am (next day) CT. In India (Chennai) it is Thu 22 Oct.
Why is Ekadasi in Chicago on a different day from India?
The thithi or star behind Ekadasi begins and ends at the same instant worldwide, but that instant falls at a different local hour in Chicago, and Chicago's sunrise is different too. So in some months Ekadasi in Chicago falls a day earlier or later than in Chennai. In this list 16 of 33 dates differ from India (for example Wed 21 Oct in Chicago, Thu 22 Oct in India). India here means the Chennai printed almanac (Vakya); Chicago dates are Thirukanitha by the local sunrise.
Which time zone are these times in?
