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

When does Ashadha Maas 2062 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Ashadha runs from Thursday, 22 June 2062 to Friday, 21 July 2062. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Friday, 7 July 2062 to Saturday, 5 August 2062.
Why do Ashadha dates differ in North and South India?
Because the two regions follow different lunar calendars. In the Purnimanta calendar (North India) a month ends on the Purnima, so it starts about 15 days earlier than in Amanta.
