v6.c81.388

Ekabhakta is also a vrata independently performed (without reference to ekādaśī) The Anuśāsanaparva (chap. 106 verses 17-30) declares the rewards secured by observing ekabhakta in each month from Mārgaśīrṣa to Kārtika and Anuśāsanaparva (chap 107. 13-126) dilates upon the fruits of observing ekabhakta on each of the thirty days of a month The Kṛtyakalpataru on vrata (pp 457-468) sets out practically the whole of Anuśāsana-parva chap 107 (which the editor appears not to have noticed) and Hemādri on vrata vol II. pp. 930-931 does the same The Kṛtyakalpataru (on vrata pp. 419-421), the Kṛtyaratnākara (pp 406-7 and later on) and Hemādri on vrata (vol II pp 748-798) quote Anuśāsana 106. 17-30 about ekabhakta in different months at different places.
