Vaikuntha Ekadashi 2 Jan 2023
Swarga Vaasal or or Paramapada opening is from 3:00 AM on January 2
Vaikuntha Ekadashi is an important festival celebrated every year. Ekadashi is the 11th day of the fortnight of the waxing or waning moon & occurs
twice a month. But the Ekadashi that occurs in the month of Marghazhi (December – January) during the fortnight of the waxing moon is of special significance & is glorified as Vaikuntha Ekadashi.

On this day, the gates of Vaikuntha (the Bagawans abode) open to His ardent
devotees. This is a major festival of South India celebrated in all the temples of Bagawan Vishnu.
Devotees of Lord Vishnu observe Ekadashi Vrata and remember the Supreme Bagawan by chanting His Holy Names and singing His glories. Nammalwar,a great devotee in the Sri Sampradaya
