🪔 About Vijaya Ekadashi

Vijaya Ekadashi occurs during the dark fortnight of Phalgun (February-March). Sri Ram observed Vijaya Ekadashi to achieve victory over the demon forces. Invoke all-around success in your life by invoking Lord Vishnu on the day of Vijaya Ekadashi.

As the name suggests, 'Vijaya' means 'victory.' This tithi is powerful for freeing oneself from past wrongs, even the severe ones.
