About Devshayani Ekadashi

14 July 2027

Devshayani Ekadashi, also called Shayani or Hari Shayanī, falls on Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi. Vaishnava lore says Vishnu reclines in yoga-nidra, beginning the four-month Chaturmas period. Devotees fast, hear Vishnu katha, and adopt simpler living until Devutthana Ekadashi in Kartik. Weddings and certain auspicious rites are often postponed through the season. Madhuma’s festival essentials help you ready a calm Vishnu altar as Chaturmas begins.
