Why Mokshada Ekadashi is celebrated

This Ekadashi is significant because it pardons all of a person's lifetime transgressions and immoral deeds. Giving someone in need a copy of the Bhagavad Gita is also said to be good so that they can benefit from Lord Krishna's blessings. On this day, listening to the Bhagavad Gita is thought to provide the same advantages as conducting the holy Ashwamedha Yajna.
