A religious procession by #Warkari ( the people who follow Lord Vitthal ) is held each year from Allandi and ends on Guru Poornima at Pandharpur. People chant #Abhang (hymns) of Sant #Dyaneshwar & Sant #Tukaram to pay tribute to Lord Vithhal. The procession is blissful!!

It is considered as one of the most sacred days to devote oneself in the veneration of Lord Vishnu.
As the Abhang of Sant Eknath states,
माझे माहेर पंढरी , आहे भीवरेच्या तीरी.
बाप आणि आई , माझी विठ्ठल रखुमाई.
