List of Dwaadashee
      
      On Dwaadashee, 
      one should take A-Yaachit food only one time in the night. If somebody 
      eats food asked in alms and keep fast on Dwaadashee, his fast will not 
      be successful. 
      
Akhand Dwaadashee Vrat
      
      Maargsheersh Shukla 12th. This Dwaadshee bestows lots of Punya, if kept 
      fast and worshipped Vishnu on this day. Vratee should take bath with 
      Panchgavya mixed water and do Paaran with that water only. Donate a pot 
      filled with barley and pray - "Hey Bhagavan, Whichever Vrat has not 
      been done properly during my last 7 lives, they all become proper (complete) 
      and give me unbroken fruit. As you are present in this world in your unbroken 
      form, in the same way my all Vrat should also be unbroken." Thus beginning 
      from Maargsheersh and ending in Phaalgun, it should be done every month for 
      four months. When it is done from Chaitra to Aashaadh, donate a pot full of Sattoo. 
      Or it can be done from Shraavan to Kaarttik also.
