"The observance of Parama Ekadashi will bring peace, prosperity, and liberation to you and your entire family." What is Parama Ekadashi? Among all the sacred fasting days in the Hindu calendar, Parama Ekadashi holds a place of extraordinary spiritual importance. It is not an Ekadashi that comes every year — it arrives only once every two to three years, making it one of the rarest and most powerful Ekadashis in Hindu tradition. Parama Ekadashi falls on the Ekadashi tithi (11th day) of the Krishna Paksha (waning moon fortnight) of Adhika Masa — the extra intercalary month added to the Hindu...

There are twenty-four Ekadashis in a regular Hindu calendar year. But once every thirty-two to thirty-three months, when Adhik Maas arrives, a twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth Ekadashi appear — ones so rare, so spiritually charged, and so deeply connected to Lord Vishnu Bhagwan that the scriptures place them in an entirely separate category of sacred observance. The Shukla Paksha Ekadashi of this extra month is called Padmini Ekadashi — also known as Kamala Ekadashi.

What Is Adhika Shukla Dwadashi?

Because Dwadashi Tithi is inherently dedicated to Lord Vishnu, and because Adhik Maas itself is the month of Lord Purushottama (the Supreme...

"Celebrating the Sacred Appearance of Lord Vishnu's Tortoise Avatar" What is Kurma Jayanti? Kurma Jayanti is one of the most sacred festivals in the Hindu calendar, observed to commemorate the divine appearance of Kurma — the Tortoise Avatar (Kurma Avatar) of Lord Vishnu. This is the second of Vishnu's Dashavatara (ten principal avatars), and its story is one of cosmic proportion, divine sacrifice, and the eternal battle between good and evil. The word "Kurma" comes from Sanskrit, meaning tortoise or turtle. According to ancient Hindu scriptures, particularly the Bhagavata Purana and Vishnu Purana, Lord Vishnu incarnated as a giant tortoise...
