Traditionally, on the occasion of the Rangbhari Ekadashi festival, the first ritual involves the worship and decoration of Hanumanji Maharaj at Siddhapeeth Hanumangarhi. Following this, abir-gulal is applied and then the puja-aarti of Hanumanji marks the beginning of the festival. The Naga Sadhus then take out a procession after paying obeisance to their idol Hanumanthala by offering abir and gulal.
The saints offered abir and gulal to Lord Hanuman and sought permission to start the Rangotsav in Ramnagari.
The devotees present in the temple were engrossed in devotion. As abir and gulal were sprayed, both devotees and saints danced in a state of ecstatic faith.
Later, a group of Naga Sadhus came out on the streets as saints danced vigorously to the beat of drums and also displayed various skills. People applied abir and gulal on each other in the streets, considering it as the ‘prasad’ of Lord Hanuman, and expressed happiness.
