Dhanurmasa Puja

During this auspicious month of Dhanurmasam 'Tiruppavai' is recited in praise of Shri Maha
Vishnu.Tiruppavai (In Tamil, Tiru is sacred, Paavai is devotional vow or 'vrat') is the glorification
of Shri Krishna avatara of Shri Maha Vishnu. It comprises of 30 verses called 'Pasurams'
and is composed by Andal or Godha Devi - one of the twelve Azhwars i.e. Poet Saints).
 
The Vrat consists of offering devotional worship service to Lord Vishnu in Brahma
Muhurtham(one and a half before sunrise) and eschewing self indulgence and harmful
speech, giving to holy and needy persons to the extent possible.

Vaikuntha Ekadasi
Monday, January 6, (Morning 6:30 AM and Evening 7:00 PM)
 
 
 
Ekadashi in Sanskrit means eleven. Ekadashi is the eleventh day of the fifteen-days
of the bright half (Sukla Paksha) and is also the eleventh day of the dark half (Krishna
Paksha) of the lunar month. In the Sukla Paksha the moon grows from new moon to
full moon and in the following half it diminishes from full moon to new moon. Ekadashi
day is auspicious to Lord Vishnu. The Ekadashi day that falls during the Sukla Paksha
of Dhanurmasa/Margazhi (Mid-December to Mid-January) is very special. On this day,
it is believed that the gates of Vaikuntha(Paramapatha vasal) are ceremoniously open
for devotees to enter. This day is celebrated as Vaikuntha (Abode of The Lord Sriman
Narayana) Ekadashi in all the Vaishnava Temples. Stories from Puranas say that Lord
Krishna discussed the special significance of Vaikuntha Ekadashi in one of His
conversations with Yudhishthira. The Lord says that there is no better fasting day
than the Ekadashi of the last fortnight of the Margazhi (Dhanurmasa) month.
Whosoever is able to strictly observe this sacred Ekadashi, with worship, meditation,
and fasting achieves complete liberation from the cycle of life and death.
