Devshayani Ekadashi
The first Ekadashi of Chaturmas — the four-month period when Vishnu is said to rest on Shesha Naga in the cosmic milk ocean. Falling on Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi (June–July), it is the climax of the Pandharpur Wari, when Warkari pilgrims arrive on foot at the Vitthal temple in Maharashtra.

About
The Vrat Katha, drawn from the Padma Purana, is the story of King Mandhata of the Ikshvaku line. A three-year drought struck his kingdom, and Sage Angiras told him the cure was not penance but this fast — observed by the whole household, it brought back the rains. From the same day begins Chaturmas, when weddings and other auspicious rites are paused until Prabodhini Ekadashi four months later. In Maharashtra the day belongs to Pandharpur. Warkari pilgrims walk for weeks in groups called dindis, carrying the padukas (sandals) of saints like Dnyaneshwar and Tukaram, and bathe in the Chandrabhaga river before darshan of Vitthal — a black-stone image, hands on hips, standing on a brick. The Yadavas of Devagiri built the main temple in the 12th century.

Prarthana, Mantras & Vrat Katha

Every festival has its own prarthanas, stotras and vrat kathas. Reading or listening to them on the festival day is the simplest way to observe the tradition at home.

Inside the Dharmayana app you can listen to:

  • 1000+ prarthanas, mantras and stotras with clear audio
  • Festival-specific kathas — Lakshmi, Durga, Shiva, Ganesha, Krishna
  • Multilingual versions: Sanskrit, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and more

Browse the full collection of prarthanas or get the app to play them on the festival morning without ads.

Festival Date, Tithi & Muhurat

Hindu festivals are tied to a specific Tithi, not a fixed date — so the day shifts every year and even varies slightly across cities.

Open the Panchanga for the festival day to see the exact Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Shubh Muhurat for pooja in your location.

The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.

Personalised Astrology Around Festivals

Festivals are also a good time to look at your kundali — many families plan sankalp, donations or new beginnings around them.

Inside the app you can:

  • Generate your personal Vedic kundali
  • Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
  • Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season

All of this is available inside the Dharmayana app — no fixed schedule, use it whenever you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hindu festivals — like Diwali, Navratri, Mahashivaratri, Holi and Janmashtami — mark sacred moments tied to deities, seasons and lunar/solar cycles. Each festival has its own story, vrat, prarthana and rituals, and is timed using the Panchanga so the date moves slightly every year against the Gregorian calendar.
