Detailed Solution

Devotees observe a day-long fast and perform Ananta Puja by worshipping Lord Vishnu.

A sacred thread (Ananta Sutra) made of 14 knots (using cotton or silk, sometimes in red, yellow, or saffron) is tied on the right arm (for men) and the left arm (for women).

The thread symbolizes the infinite power of Lord Vishnu and serves as a reminder of faith, discipline, and devotion.

The vow (vrata) is usually taken for 14 years, signifying long-term commitment to dharma and devotion.

Significance: The thread represents protection from misfortune and blessings of prosperity, similar to how Raksha Sutra symbolizes protection.
