On this day, Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe, goes into a state of deep sleep (yoga nidra) in the Kshirasagar (ocean of milk) for the next four months. This Ekadashi is usually observed on the eleventh day of the bright fortnight of the month of Ashadha, hence it is also known as Ashadhi Ekadashi. Devotees also refer to it as Harishayani Ekadashi or Padma Ekadashi.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Harishayani Ekadashi, Lord Vishnu entrusts the responsibility of the universe to Lord Shiva. During the absence of Lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva manages the affairs of the universe for the next four months. Since Lord Vishnu is in a state of yoga nidra during these months, no auspicious activities are performed.

Devotees believe that this practice helps purify the mind, relieve sorrows, and attain moksha (liberation). Although Chaturmas starts from this day, worshiping and donating are not prohibited during this period.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Devshayani Ekadashi 2024 Date and Auspicious Time<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In 2024, Devshayani Ekadashi will be observed on July 17.
