There are no indications that Gaudiya Vaisnavas perform any extra functions or austerities for this vrata.
Of all the vratas assigned to caturdasi, the Anantacaturdasi-vrata (Bhadrapada sukla caturdasi) seems to be the most important and widely observed.
It is also called ‘Anantapadmanabha-vrata’.
Lord Visnu is believed to have appeared on this day as Padmanabha lying on the couch of Ananta (the thousand-hooded serpent).
