The rarest Ekadashi of the entire Hindu calendar is three days away. The Padma Purana preserves a conversation between Bhagavan Krishna and Yudhishthira about a single Ekadashi the great Rishis spend lifetimes waiting for — Padmini. The Vrat Katha of Queen Padmini of Mahishmati, the lotus teaching, and why May 27, 2026 is the morning Vaishnavas across Bharata are preparing for.
Once every 2.5–3 years — when the rare 13th month of Adhika Maas opens — a thirteenth Vinayaka Chaturthi appears. The Mudgala Purana calls it Varada Chaturthi, the “boon-giving” Chaturthi, and holds it as the most fruit-bearing Ganesha day of the entire calendar. Today, Wednesday May 20, 2026, is that day.
Padmini Ekadashi 2026 falls on Wednesday, May 27 — the Shukla Paksha Ekadashi of Adhika Maas, the rarest Ekadashi in the entire Hindu calendar (it appears only every 2.5–3 years). The Padma Purana conversation between Bhagavan Krishna and Yudhishthira, the Vrat Katha of Queen Padmini, complete vrat vidhi with jagrana, mantras, and the lotus symbolism that gives the Ekadashi its name.
Ganga Dussehra falls on Monday, May 25, 2026 — commemorating the day Maa Ganga descended from Vaikuntha to the earth through the millennia-long tapasya of King Bhagiratha. The full account from the Valmiki Ramayana, snan vidhi, dana traditions, mantras, and the teaching of sustained sincerity.
Once every 2.5–3 years, the Hindu calendar opens a quiet thirteenth chamber — the intercalary month Lord Vishnu took for His own. A Puranic look at Adhik Jyeshtha Maas 2026 (May 2–31), the Padma Purana account of how it became Purushottam Maas, and a complete householder’s guide for its closing days.
