The 20th of July is Padma or Shayana Ekadashi, a Lunar Fasting observance described by Lord Krishna as "bestowing all kinds of happiness, as well as ultimate liberation, upon the faithful devotee."

High protein and carbohydrate-containing foods, particularly grains, are not consumed by observant people during the fast. Instead, only fruit, vegetables, and milk products are eaten.
