Dev Uthani Ekadashi-2025: Dev Uthani Ekadashi is an important day in Hinduism. It is a special time to worship Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi, who are believed to create the universe. This celebration happens every year in the month of Kartik, and this year, it will be on Saturday, November 1st.
People believe that fasting and sincerely praying to Lord Vishnu on this day can wash away sins and bring happiness and peace. During worship, pouring water over the Shivalinga (a symbol of Lord Shiva) is considered very good and can help fulfill wishes.
If you want to receive blessings from Lord Shiva, you can offer special items to the Shivalinga on Dev Uthani Ekadashi. Here are some suggestions.
For Money Problems: If you are facing financial issues, take a bath in the morning and then perform a prayer (puja). Offer rice to the Shivalinga and chant Shiva mantras to seek help.
For Finding a Good Partner: To attract a good groom or bride, offer Shami flowers to the Shivalinga. This is believed to bring good results and increase happiness.
To Fulfill Wishes: Offering curd and honey to the Shivalinga is considered very lucky. It is said that this can help fulfill your wishes.
To Reduce Stress: Anointing the Shivalinga with Ganga water and milk is believed to relieve mental stress and bring peace and happiness.
By following these practices, devotees can receive blessings and improve their lives.
