Kri.M 172
दशमीशेषसंयुक्ता गान्धार्या समुपोषिता। तस्याः पुत्रशतं नष्टं तस्मात्तां परिवर्जयेत् ॥१७२॥
Earlier Gandhari fasted on 'êkadashi', which had parts of 'dashami'. Thus, all her 100 suns died. One should not fast on 'êksdashi' that is mixed with 'dashami'.

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
