Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh) [India], November 1 (ANI): Devotees gathered at the Mahakaleshwar Temple on Saturday to witness the sacred Bhasma Aarti on the auspicious occasion of Devprabodhini Ekadashi.

This divine ritual is considered one of the most significant spiritual practices dedicated to Lord Shiva.

Dev Uthani Ekadashi is also known as Prabodhini Ekadashi, which marks the awakening of the Hindu deity Lord Vishnu from his four-month cosmic sleep (Chaturmas). The day marks auspicious events, such as marriages and religious ceremonies, which were halted during the Chaturmas. Devotees observe the day by fasting and offering prayers to Lord Vishnu and Goddess Laxmi.

The temple premises resonated with the sounds of Vedic chants, conch shells, temple bells, and devotional hymns.
