Why the dates differ. In the Purnimanta calendar a month ends on the full moon; in Amanta it ends on the new moon. So Ashadha begins about 15 days earlier in North India than in Amanta regions — even though the festivals fall on the same day in both, because they are fixed by tithi.

The significance of Ashadha — Lord Vishnu

Ashadha is the threshold of the monsoon and of Chaturmas — the four months in which Vishnu is said to sleep, beginning at Devshayani Ekadashi, when weddings and new ventures pause. It carries the Jagannath Rath Yatra at Puri and Guru Purnima, the full moon given to the teacher, when Vyasa is honoured and the disciple bows to the one who shows the way.

Rituals of Ashadha

  • Devshayani Ekadashi — the start of Chaturmas vows
  • Jagannath Rath Yatra at Puri
  • Guru Purnima — worship of the guru and Vyasa
  • Taking up a Chaturmas discipline or fast
  • Gupt Navratri for the initiated
  • Fasting on Yogini and Devshayani Ekadashi
