Guest guest Posted August 6, 2003 Report Share Posted August 6, 2003 Dear Adhyatma Bandhus, This time Vara Maha Lakshmi Vrata falls on Ekadhashi day. As I understood if shradda falls on Ekadhashi or Krishna Jayanti day, they should be celeberated on next day (Dhwadashi and Navami day respectively). If a firstival like Vara Maha Lakshmi Vrata falls on Ekadhashi day, what is the shastraic advise?. As I guess, it should be celeberated on Dhwadhasi day since fasting on Ekadhasi overrides all other things. (Even Maha Lakshmi is also fasting on Ekadhasi, no samarpana/offering for her on that day). Expert advises are urgently required since the day of Vara Mahalakshmi Vrata + Ekadhasi is nearby (Friday 9.8.03). Your Ahyatma Bandhu. Lakshmi Narayana Rao.
