Devuthani Ekadashi 2026 kab hai?

Devuthani Ekadashi 2026 21 November 2026 ko hai. Vishnu wakes from yoga nidra — end of Chaturmas, weddings resume, Tulsi Vivah begins

How is Devuthani Ekadashi celebrated?

The vrat is observed in the standard ekadashi pattern but with even greater devotional intensity. At dawn devotees stand at Vishnu's temple or before their household shaligram and chant: "Uttishtha Govinda, uttishtha Garudadhwaja, uttishtha Kamalakanta, trailokyam mangalam kuru" — "Wake, O Govinda; wake, O bearer of Garuda; wake, O beloved of Lakshmi; bring auspiciousness to all three worlds." A common practice is to draw rangoli, light lamps, and offer Vishnu fresh sugarcane (the new harvest) along with tulsi, lotus flowers, and yellow garments. Many homes celebrate by lighting an extra lamp

What seva is auspicious on Devuthani Ekadashi?

Gau Seva on Devuthani Ekadashi closes the Chaturmas vow with grace. For those who took up Gau Seva as a regular tapas during Chaturmas, this is the day to offer one final, special seva — full bhojan to a cow, distribution of green fodder, or sponsoring a day of feed at a goshala. The merit accumulated through four months of seva matures on this day, returning as Vishnu's blessing for the year ahead.

Significance of Devuthani Ekadashi

Devuthani Ekadashi (देवउठनी एकादशी, also Prabodhini Ekadashi or Devotthana Ekadashi) is observed on the eleventh day (Ekadashi) of the bright fortnight (Shukla Paksha) of Kartik month — exactly four months after Devshayani Ekadashi. It marks the moment Lord Vishnu wakes from his cosmic yoga nidra. Across India, this is the day Chaturmas ends and the auspicious season returns: weddings, griha pravesh, vehicle-purchase muhurats, mundan, and all other shubh karmas resume. Tulsi Vivah — the ceremonial marriage of Tulsi (Vrinda) to Lord Vishnu (or his shaligram form) — is performed on this day or on the following Dwadashi.
