Parivartini Ekadashi is among the most significant fasts in Hinduism; it is believed that on this day Lord Vishnu, who is in a deep slumber, turns to his other side.

According to religious beliefs, worshipping Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe and wielder of the Sudarshan Chakra, is considered equivalent to worshipping all gods and goddesses.
