Parivartini Ekadashi holds a significant place in Hindu traditions as it marks the transition of Lord Vishnu from one side to the other in his yogic sleep. This auspicious day, observed on Bhadrapada Shuddha Ekadashi, is known for the special worship dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Fasting on Parivartini Ekadashi is believed to cleanse one’s sins, while reciting Sri Hari mantras offers relief from life’s troubles.
According to the Bhavishya Purana attributed to Sage Vyasa, the Ekadashi signifies the transformation of Swami from left to right, hence earning the name “transition Ekadashi.” The observance of Parivartini Ekadashi is considered a sacred practice that brings auspicious results.
In the astrological context, Panchangam indicates the presence of Sobhana Yoga until 6:18 pm on Parivartini Ekadashi, followed by Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga from 8:32 pm to 06:06 am on September 15. The day also features Ravi Yoga from 06:06 am to 08:32 am, with Uttarashadha Nakshatra transitioning to Shrava Nakshatra at 8:32 PM.
The year 2024 will witness the Parivartini Ekadashi Vrat on Saturday, September 14th, with the fasting initiation concluding on the 15th. This Ekadashi, also known as Jaljhu and Ekadashi, is revered for its power to absolve sins through meditation and worship of Lord Vishnu.
