Festivals and Important Days in Dwaraka Tirumala 2015
Padmini Ekadasi
Padmini Ekadashi is observed on during the waxing
phase of the moon (Shukla Paksha) only in the Adhika Masam or extra month added
to the Hindu lunar calendar.It is also known as kamala ekadasi.
King Kartavirya who was the ruler of the kingdom of Tretayuga. The king had been married to a thousand queens only on the pretext of having a son that could rule his dynasty.
King Kartavirya who was the ruler of the kingdom of Tretayuga. The king had been married to a thousand queens only on the pretext of having a son that could rule his dynasty.
Hence in order to get a son, the king had
performed several austerities for over ten thousand years but to no avail.
Thus, he set out to the forests. Knowingly, Padmini (one of the thousand queens
of Kartavirya) followed him and met Anasuya (Maha Pathivrata) on the way. On
enquiring about any vrat that could help in conceiving a baby, Anasuya asked
her to observe two Ekadashis that fall in the Adhika Masam. As directed, both
Kartavirya and Padmini observed the fasts.
Soon after, Lord Vishnu appeared before the couple and further informed that they would soon be granted their wishes as they had observed vrats in the month that is considered highly auspicious. In due course of time, the couple was blessed with a healthy son, named Kartaviryarjuna, who was not only powerful but also defeated and imprisoned Ravana. The Padmini Ekadashi vrat is observed by following the same routine as that of Ekadashi.
