Varuthini Ekadashi 2025: Puja Vidhi
On this auspicious day, devotees are encouraged to rise early, cleanse their homes, take a sacred bath, and adorn themselves in fresh, preferably new attire. With a pure heart, make a sankalp—a solemn vow—to observe the fast. In your place of worship, lovingly place the idol of Lord Vishnu along with the Shree Yantra, the powerful emblem of Goddess Lakshmi. Light a diya and gently set it before the deity, letting its warm glow invite divine energy. Offer fresh flowers or a garland, sacred Tulsi leaves, and lit incense sticks to complete the ritual.
