During the hottest season (northern hemisphere), if one can perform upavasa without water one is performing a great feat. One may take only charanamrta and achamana water. Bhima the mighty warrior of the Pandava dynasty requested one vrata day by which he could obtain the fruits of all the other days of vrata that he was incapable of observing. Vyasadeva advised him to follow this difficult vrata.
在严热的季节（北半球），如果一个人能够戒食且不喝水就是在覆行一个很大的壮举。一个人只能用取charanamrta和achamana的水。潘杜王朝伟大的战士彼玛请求一个誓言日——虽然他不能遵守所有誓言日，但在这天他能够获得遵守其它所有誓言日同样的结果。维亚萨戴瓦建议他遵循这个较为艰难的誓言日。
One should worship the Lord in the evening by bathing him in milk.
人应该在晚上用牛奶给神沐浴进行崇拜。
On the dvadasi one should give full pots of water to brahmanas and feed them before breaking one's fast.
在誓言日应该给婆罗门献上整罐的水并在打破戒食前提供食物给他们。

哈瑞·巴克塔·维拉萨 15.25 帕德玛·普然纳 维亚萨戴瓦和彼士玛对话

Oh son, Lord Keshava, Who holds the club, disk, conch and lotus flower in His hand, personally told me that all of the merit achieved by fasting on whatever EkAdasis fall in one year can be attained by fasting on this one EkAdasii (nirjalA EkAdasii). Of this, there is no doubt.
哦，儿子，手持神棒、神碟、海螺和莲花的主凯萨瓦，他亲自告诉我通过这一个爱卡达西（尼尔加拉·爱卡达西）的戒食能够获得一年所有爱卡达西戒食的好处，这是毫无疑问的。

ATMADROHAH KRTASTES TU YAIR ESA NA HY UPOSITA
PAPATMANO DURACARA DUSTAS TE NA ATRA SAMSAYAH

(HARI BHAKTI VILASA 15/33 from PADMA PURANA Vyasadeva speaks to Bhimasena)
哈瑞·巴克塔·维拉萨 15.33 帕德玛·普然纳 维亚萨戴瓦和彼士玛对话

Anyone who does not fast on this particular EkAdasii (nirjalA EkAdasii), they should be understood to be sinful, corrupted and suicidal person without a doubt.
如果人不在这个特殊的爱卡达西（尼尔加拉·爱卡达西）戒食，他们毫无疑问应该被视为是有罪的、堕落、自取灭亡的。
