Mohini Ekadashi
May 1, 2023
Vaishaka is the holy month in the Hindu calendar when Mohini Ekadashi is observed. On the days of Mohini Ekadashi, Lord Vishnu is taken as the God whose Praises are being done in various ways and methods. Last year in 2022, Mohini Ekadashi was celebrated on the 12th of May, and the day was Thursday. There is a proper reason before the name of this event. This event is named because the Hindus believe that on this day, their Lord Vishnu came on the Earth as their God and changed the Earth by his methods. The appearance of Vishnu on that is named a Nymph. Nymph is considered the most basic form of Vishnu since it appeared on the Earth. When the Lord Vushnu was delivered in the original form named Nymphh on the Earth, he met with the Arjun. All their discussions tell all the essential points related to Mohini Ekadashi. Due to all these reasons, Mohini Ekadashi is also named as another form of Vishnu. In Mohini Ekadashi 2023, Mohini Ekadashi will be on the 1st of May according to the gregorian calendar. The day when it will participate will be Monday.

The worship offered on this day is in honor and respect of Vishnu because God is honored in this Ekdashi movement. There is a fasting activity that takes place on the ground. The proper fasting method is announced yearly as Vishnu tells his care person, and he then reveals it in the form of notice to all other persons. The fasting time is considered to be early in the morning, and all the fasting one person has to gather in a collective ground where there are large bowls of food offered to Vishnu. The fasting persons use that Bowl of food, and then they are advised to make up their minds to fast the whole day. They do not have to use any food like grains or alcoholic drinks. In addition to this, the fasting person has to worship for Vishnu to make his mind cool so that he showers his blessings in different forms, like prosperity and other ones, on the fasting person. The idol celebrations are also performed during this day in the main Temple of Vishnu.
