*Vañjulīvrata*—Vañjulī is one of the eight great dvādaśīs enumerated above on p. 119; Vañjulī is dvādaśī that exists the whole of one civil day (from sunrise to sunrise) and extends over the next day, so that it is possible to fast on dvādaśī and perform pāraṇā not on the next tithi but on dvādaśī itself; worship of golden image of Nārāyaṇa, in merit it is superior to thousands of Rājasūya sacrifices; NS 48, SmK 252-253.
