Aashadhi Ekadashi Pandharpur
Celebration of Aashadhi Ekadashi Pilgrimage at Pandharpur
It is one of the most important pilgrimages of Varkari Tradition. Our Lord Vitthal himself told Namdev not to forget Aashadhi pilgrimage. The four months period from Aashadhi to Kartiki is believed that these four months are holy months. Therefore many pious people come to Pandhapur. In these four months, various religions programmers are held in Pandharpur. Approximately 5 or 6 lac people come to Pandharpur for Aashadhi Pilgrimage. It is generally monsoon season. During the period of pilgrimage the Chandrabhaga River becomes mighty. The whole atmosphere becomes excited and delightful. Many merchant get busy in their work. Aashadhi pilgrimage cannot be described in words. It must be seen with eyes.
Before the Aashadhi pilgrimage, the pious people set forth towars Pandharpur. Many people from another states also come to Pandharur for Aashadhi pilgrimage. They forget their discriminations of language, casts etc. they call themselves the servant of Vishnu and Vitthal. Varkari Tradition teaches integrity. Here the discriminate ends. Many foreigners come to see this celebration.
