Devutthana Ekadashi Prabodhini Ekadashi, or Dev Uthani Gyaras are other names for the Ekadashi Tithi of Kartik, Shukla Paksha (the waxing phase of the lunar fortnight). Devotees observe a day-long fast on this day, breaking it the following morning after sunrise when Dwadashi Tithi is in effect. Because it signals the end of the Chaturmas season, which is considered unlucky for holding auspicious events, the Devutthana Ekadashi is particularly important. Additionally, it coincides with the Tulsi Vivah, a day when the revered Tulsi wed Lord Vishnu’s Shri Krishna avatar in his Shaligram form.

Devutthana Ekadashi significance
It is unlucky to get married, get a tonsillectomy, or have a housewarming during Chaturmas. During this time, devotees refrain from holding any significant good deeds and instead wait for it to end before planning such auspicious rituals. Thus, the Devutthana Ekadashi in 2022 would signal the start of the Indian wedding season. In Devutthana Ekadashi 2022, people observe a fast to release themselves from the burden of any sins they may have committed, and they also seek refuge in Vaikuntha after passing away. It is Lord Vishnu’s heavenly home.
Devutthana Ekadashi’s origin and history
The Chaturmass era comes to a close on the Ekadashi. It consists of the months of Shravana, Bhadrapada, Ashwin, and Kartik, and it ends on Devutthana Ekadashi. After four months, Lord Vishnu is said to awaken from his yogic slumber. Lord Vishnu sleeps on Adishesha’s coiling corpse on the ocean floor for these four months. It is Devutthana Ekadashi or Prabodhini Ekadashi on this day as he awakens. On the day after Devutthana Ekadashi, Lord Vishu is said to have wed Goddess Vrinda (Tulsi). From the day after Devutthana Ekadashi, many Indian homes also practice the Tulsi Vivah ceremony. On Devutthana Ekadashi, people offer prayers to the holy basil plant the following day.
Rituals followed on Prabodhini Ekadashi
On Prabodhini Ekadashi, worshippers bathe in revered rivers or bodies of water.
-The devotees who observe this vrat rise before dawn. After taking a bath, they go without food or water for the entire day.
-The vrat observer visits the temples of Lord Vishnu in the evening and takes part in the puja ceremonies performed there.

-Children make loud noises and ignite mustard torches at night to awaken Lord Vishnu. Then, devotees pray to their lord to awaken from his nap and bestow blessings on everyone while singing bhakti songs or bhajans.
-Then, while chanting “Utho Deva, Batho Deva, Aanguria Chatkao Deva, Nayi Soot, Nayi Kapas, Deva Uthaye Kartik Masa,” devotees blast the Shankha.
