what needs to be done on this day
Sir, you are making us confuse regarding VRAT of Purnima. Plz let me know when we need to VRAT On January 26 or 27 2013
Pandey Ji, when I open your website to find Purnima Vrat your home page upcoming VRAT. When I click on Purnima VRAT say that the VRAT on January 27. When I opened 2013-14 Purnima VRAT here you say the VRAT on 26th.
So, I request you kindly let me know which day is correct for VRAT?
January 26 is the correct date. It was an error that has been corrected.
how to do this vrat......
i do nt understand
@ Anonymous: Do you have faith in yourself? If the answer is 100% "Yes" then and then only do any vrat. The reason is, if you do not have faith in yourself, you won't have faith on the "unkknown". Secondly, do not do any vrat because it is Purnima or Ekdashi or just because you expect something out of any vrat that you do. Do all your karma (because you cannot escape this state), but without any expectation of fruit. Try to know the "self", bring all that's inside on "surface"-observe it, accept it. Do not react towards them. Be aware and with this state, you will march towards a path that will ultimately lead you to the "unknown". This is my personal experience. You may or may not want to believe. May peace and light be upon you.
