'''Dwadashi''' (also '''Dvādaśi or Dwadasi''') ([[Sanskrit]] for [[12 (number)|Twelve]]) is the twelfth lunar day ([[Tithi]]) of the ''shukla'' (bright) or ''krishna'' (dark) fortnight, or [[Paksha]], of every lunar month in the [[Hindu calendar]].
{{Hinduism}}

Dwadashi is especially suitable for the worship of the sacred [[Tulasi]] tree (Tulasi stava of srishti khanda of [[Padma Purana]]), much like [[Ekadashi]] is especially suitable for the worship of [[Vishnu]]. In fact, the Ekadashi fast is a three-day fast, starting on [[Dashami]] and concluding on Dwadashi. The saint poet [[Annamacharya]] died on [[Phalguna]] Bahula (Krishna) Dwadasi (12th day after full moon) in the year Dhundhubhi, on 4 April 1503 after living for 95 years.
