Pilgrims Perform Vamana Worship and Ganga Dip on Auspicious Padma Ekadashi

Padma Ekadashi, observed on the bright lunar day of Bhadrapada, centers on the worship of Lord Vishnu’s dwarf incarnation, Vamana. In Prayagraj, priests narrated the mythological background and encouraged devotees to combine the Vamana puja with a Ganga dip.

Many pilgrims shared personal vows, stating that a ritual bath would bring material prosperity and spiritual purity. The chants echoed through the Sangam as participants offered flowers, performed aarti, and prayed for universal well‑being.
