Kali_Upasaka Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Ashadi Ekadasi, or Ashada Devasayani Ekadashi, is observed during the Shukla Paksha (waxing phase of moon) in Ashada Month (June – July). Pandarpur Yatra culminates on Ashadi Ekadasi and is of great importance in Maharashtra. The day is of a great significance at the Lord Vithal Temple in Pandarpur. In 2009, the date of Ashadi Ekadasi is July 3. The Palaki of Tukaram Maharaj from Dehu, Palki of Sant Jnaneshwar from Alandi and numerous other Palaki (Palanquin) carrying the silver Padukas of various saints arrives at Lord Vithal Temple in Pandarpur on Ashadi Ekadasi after a 21-day journey. Lord Vithal is an incarnation of Lord Krishna and is a popular deity in Maharashtra and South India. Take a dip in the holy Chandrabhaga river and Have Dharshan of Lord Panduranga. http://nayna.in/blog/divine-grace/pandharpur-yatra-glories-of-lord-vithalvithoba/ http://www.indianetzone.com/2/pandharpur.htm A short collection of Abhangs by the great Sant Tukaram. http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/abhangs-a-short-collection/ Panduraranga Vittala, Pandarinatha Vittala, Vittala, Vittala, Vittala !!!
