Overview

Tulsi Vivah for families in Sarnath

Tulsi Vivah is the ceremonial marriage of the Tulsi plant, revered as Tulsi Devi, with Lord Vishnu in the form of a Shaligram stone or an image of Krishna. It is celebrated in Kartik, usually on Dwadashi after Devuthani Ekadashi, when Vishnu is said to awaken from his four months of rest.

Sarnath, a few kilometres north-east of central Varanasi, is revered around the world as the place where the Buddha gave his first sermon after enlightenment. Its stupas, monasteries and museum draw pilgrims and visitors from many countries throughout the year.

Planning Your Puja in Sarnath

Rituals are arranged at homes and hotels, not at the Buddhist heritage sites.
