Devuthani Ekadashi
Devuthani Ekadashi Puja: Devuthani Ekadashi is not only the day of awakening of Lord Vishnu but also the festival of re-emergence of auspiciousness in the universe. On this day, when Lord Vishnu wakes up from Yoganidra, the auspicious time for auspicious works also begins with him. On such a holy day, it is considered extremely important for the puja rituals to be pure and as per the rules. It is said in the scriptures that if some special things are offered to God by mistake on this day, then it can have the opposite effect. Not only the results of the fast are reduced, but the energy of worship can also become ineffective.
Do not offer these things even by mistake
On the day of Devuthani Ekadashi, food made from strong spices, meat, fish, eggs and alcohol are completely prohibited. Consuming them impures the energy of worship on this day.
Similarly, grains, pulses, rice, wheat etc. are also not offered in worship on this day because sacrifice of grains during Ekadashi fast is considered mandatory.
Apart from this, plucking Tulsi leaves or disrespecting Tulsi Mata on this day is also considered to give inauspicious results. Tulsi itself is a form of Lakshmi, hence only previously plucked leaves are offered to her on this day.
What could be its consequences?
Prohibition of Tamasic substances: Offering Tamasic substances like garlic, onion or non-vegetarian food is prohibited on Devuthani Ekadashi, as they destroy the sanctity of the worship.
Use of grains and pulses is a violation of fasting rules: Consuming or offering food grains on this day is considered tantamount to breaking the decorum of the fast, which hinders the blessings of God.
Reduction in Vishnu’s grace due to disrespect towards Tulsi Mata: Worship of Lord Vishnu is considered incomplete without Tulsi; Disrespect leads to unrest and loss of good fortune in the house.
