Ekasharana — observances and vrat guides

Ekasharana devotion is associated with Assamese Vaishnava religious life and the teachings of Sankardev and Madhavdev. Naam, congregational devotion and the life of the namghar provide the setting for many commemorations. A teacher remembrance day should not be confused with an unrelated festival that happens to share its date. Local community practice determines the details of worship and shared food. The catalog's pages preserve the named teachers and devotional focus rather than importing an unrelated ritual framework. This hub connects those individual observances so readers can follow their place in the yearly calendar and compare the recorded guidance.

The catalog currently includes 4 distinct entries in this collection. Examples are Raas Mahotsav; Bohag Bihu (Rongali Bihu); Dol Utsav (Phakuwa); Namami (Monthly Naam-Prasanga). Their recorded devotional focus includes Lord Krishna · Ekasharana / Mahapuruxiya Dharma; Lord Krishna · Assamese New Year (Mesha Sankranti); Lord Krishna · Phalguna Purnima; Lord Krishna · Naam-Ghar / Satra congregation. Follow the individual links below for the full description, calendar dates, mantra and allowed or avoided foods; each link leads to a dedicated observance page rather than a search result.

Calendar dates are references, not a substitute for the observance rules of your chosen city and community. Lunar days can cross civil-date boundaries, and regional practice can change which day is kept. Meal suggestions are optional ideas for an allowed meal, not instructions to eat during a complete fast. Children, pregnant people and anyone with a medical condition should seek appropriate advice before fasting. Compare the linked guides with your family or temple's practice and choose a discipline suited to your health.
