Sairam Abhilashji,

I've a question for you? Is Holika dahan celebrated on Poornima and Dhuleti/Dhulendi the following day i.e., Padyami? Please clarify.

Thanks in advance:)

Namaskar, 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 March 26. When I opened 2013-14 Purnima VRAT here you say the VRAT on 27th.

So, I request you kindly let me know which day is correct for VRAT?
