Devotees Takes Holy Bath At Prayagraj Sangam At Occasion Of Devshayani Ekadashi

On July 17, in Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh), a significant gathering of devotees congregated at the sacred Sangam of the Ganga and Yamuna rivers to observe Devshayani Ekadashi. This auspicious day holds deep spiritual significance in Sanatan Dharma, marking the beginning of Chaturmas, a period when auspicious activities are traditionally paused. Devotees immersed themselves in the holy waters, believed to be especially purifying during this time. According to tradition, Devshayani Ekadashi signifies the commencement of Lord Vishnu's restorative sleep in Kshirsagar (the cosmic ocean of milk), marking a period of divine rejuvenation. The Prayagraj Sangam holds particular reverence due to its association with Vishnu, enhancing the spiritual significance of the occasion for worshippers. The event drew attention not only for its religious importance but also for the communal gathering and shared devotion among participants.
