Worship During Bhasmaarti
Worship and aarti of Shri Hari Vishnu were conducted on Vaikuntha Chaturdashi in the Bhasmarti of Lord Mahakal in the wee hours of Sunday in Shri Mahakaleshwar temple.
It is believed that from Devshayani Ekadashi to Devuthani Ekadashi, Lord Vishnu goes to rest at the place of King Bali.
At that time, the power of the earth is with Lord Devadhidev Mahadev and on the day of Vaikuntha Chaturdashi, Lord Shiva again hands over this power to Shri Vishnu and returns to Mount Kailash for penance.
