Vaikunta Ekadashi is the Ekadashi that occurs in the Hindu calendar month of Marghazhi or Margashira or Margasirsa. Vaishnavism (Worship of Lord Vishnu) culture believes that ‘Vaikunta Dwaram’ or ‘the gate to Lord's Inner Sanctum’ is opened on this day. The Margashirsha shukla paksha ekadashi in lunar calendar is known as a 'Mokshada Ekadashi'. People also know that as a vaikunta ekadashi. It falls on 7th jan,2009.
Tirumala Venkateswara Temple also has a similar concept. Thirumala has a special entrance called Vaikunta Dwaram that encircles the sanctum sanctorum. The dwaram (passage) is opened only on Vaikunta Ekadashi and it is believed that any person who passes through this `Vaikunta Dwaram' on this particular day attains salvation.[3] The temple witnesses heavy inflow of pilgrims and dignitaries for Vaikunta Ekadashi.
