Traditional Vrat Products for Ekadashi, Navratri, Shivratri & Other Hindu Fasting Days
For every devotee, Upvas (fasting) is more than simply avoiding food. It is a sacred opportunity to bring the mind closer to Bhagwan through devotion, prayer, discipline, and self-control. Whether you observe Ekadashi, Pradosh Vrat, Navratri, Maha Shivratri, Janmashtami, Karwa Chauth, Purnima, or any other Hindu fasting tradition, every small action during the day is often performed with greater awareness and sincerity.
Many devotees also prefer to use products that match their personal fasting traditions. At HariBol Mart, we understand these sentiments because we have spent years listening to devotees through our YouTube community and helping them with their spiritual journey.
That is why we created our Upvas & Fasting Essentials Collection.
This collection has been carefully prepared for devotees looking for traditional fasting-friendly products made with thoughtfully selected botanical ingredients. Our range currently includes Upvas Dant Manjan, Vrat Tooth Powder, Sanatan Dharma Vrat Hetu Powder, and Fast Tooth Powder, prepared using premium ingredients such as Rose Petals, Orange Peel, Dried Mint Leaves, Dried Mango Leaves, Clove, Sendha Namak (Rock Salt), and Dried Pomegranate Peel.
Every product reflects our commitment to quality, tradition, and the needs of devotees.
Why HariBol Mart Created This Collection
HariBol Mart is not just an online store. It is a community built around Sanatan Dharma, devotion, and practical guidance for everyday spiritual life.
For more than seven years, our HariBol YouTube channel has helped devotees understand topics like Ekadashi, Tulsi Mala, Rudraksha, Bhakti, Vrindavan, and Sanatan Dharma. During this journey, one question appeared again and again in the comments.
"Ashu Didi, vrat ke din kaunsa toothpaste ya tooth powder use karna chahiye?"
Thousands of devotees shared similar concerns.
Many families follow traditions where they try to avoid certain products during fasting and prefer simple alternatives prepared with traditional ingredients. However, when we explored the market, we found very few products created specifically for devotees observing vrat.
Most available products were designed as general herbal tooth powders rather than products inspired by fasting traditions.
Instead of asking devotees to compromise or search endlessly, we decided to create something ourselves.
Our goal was simple.
We wanted to prepare a traditional tooth powder using carefully selected botanical ingredients for devotees who prefer a fasting-oriented alternative according to their own family traditions, guru's guidance, or sampradaya.
This collection is the result of listening to real devotees before creating real products.
What Makes This Collection Different?
Many brands begin by asking, "What product can we sell?"
We began by asking, "What problem can we solve for devotees?"
Every product in this collection has been inspired by genuine questions from our community rather than market trends.
Before selecting a single ingredient, we asked ourselves three simple questions.
- Is this inspired by traditional Indian practices?
- Would devotees feel comfortable choosing it during vrat according to their own traditions?
- Does it match the quality standards we want HariBol Mart to represent?
Only after answering these questions did we begin developing our formulations.
At HariBol Mart, we believe devotional products deserve the same care and sincerity as the devotion behind them.
What is Upvas?
The word Upvas (उपवास) comes from Sanskrit. It means "to stay close to Bhagwan." That is why Upvas is not only about eating less or avoiding certain foods. Its true purpose is to spend more time in bhakti, prayer, mantra chanting, reading scriptures, self-discipline, and remembering God.
Every devotee observes Upvas differently. Some people keep a Nirjala Vrat (without water), some eat fruits, some take milk, while others prepare vrat-friendly meals using ingredients that are accepted in their family tradition.
There is no single rule that every Hindu follows. Different families, gurus, temples, and sampradayas have their own customs. At HariBol Mart, we respect every tradition and encourage devotees to follow the guidance they have received from their family or spiritual teacher.
For many devotees, fasting is not just about what they eat. It is about living the entire day with greater purity, simplicity, and devotion.
Why Many Devotees Choose Traditional Products During Vrat
During our conversations with devotees, we noticed something interesting.
People were not only asking about fasting foods. They were also asking about the products they use every morning.
Questions like these became very common:
- Which toothpaste should I use during Ekadashi?
- Can I use a regular toothpaste during vrat?
- Is there a traditional alternative?
- Do you have a Vrat-friendly tooth powder?
These questions made us realise that many devotees wanted products that reflected their own spiritual practices.
Some families believe that during fasting they should keep their daily routine as simple as possible and prefer products prepared with traditional ingredients instead of products containing many modern additives. Other families may follow different customs.
Because traditions vary, HariBol Mart does not claim that one approach is correct for everyone. Our goal is simply to provide an option for devotees who are looking for products inspired by traditional fasting practices.
Our Ingredient Philosophy
At HariBol Mart, we believe that every ingredient should have a purpose.
Instead of adding unnecessary ingredients, we focused on creating a simple blend using carefully selected botanical ingredients that have been familiar in Indian households for generations.
Before choosing any ingredient, we followed four principles.
Traditional Inspiration
We selected ingredients that have long been used in traditional Indian herbal preparations.
Premium Quality
Every raw ingredient is carefully selected before it becomes part of our formulation.
Simple Formulation
We believe a thoughtfully prepared formula is better than adding unnecessary ingredients.
Devotee First
Every decision was made by asking one simple question.
"Would we confidently recommend this product to our own HariBol family?"
Our Quality Process
Every product begins with carefully selected raw ingredients.
We personally inspect the quality of the ingredients before they are used.
The ingredients are cleaned to remove dust and unwanted particles.
Where needed, they are properly dried to help maintain the quality of the powder.
Each ingredient is then ground with care so that the natural characteristics of the botanical ingredients are preserved as much as possible.
Finally, the finished powder is checked again before packaging.
Although this process takes more time, we believe devotional products deserve careful preparation.
Why We Chose These Ingredients
Every ingredient in our Upvas collection was selected thoughtfully. Rather than following trends, we focused on ingredients that are widely recognised in traditional Indian herbal preparations.
Premium Rose Petals
Rose petals are known for their naturally pleasant aroma and have been used in traditional Indian preparations for generations. We include them to create a gentle, naturally fragrant blend without relying on synthetic perfumes.
Clove (Laung)
Clove has been a familiar part of traditional household oral care recipes in India for many years. It is included as part of our carefully balanced botanical formulation because of its long history of traditional use.
Orange Peel
Instead of using artificial polishing agents, we chose dried orange peel, which has traditionally been used in herbal preparations and provides a naturally fine texture in powdered formulations.
Dried Mint Leaves
Mint is appreciated for the fresh feeling it provides. We use dried mint leaves to create a naturally refreshing experience using botanical ingredients.
Sendha Namak (Rock Salt)
Sendha Namak is widely used in many Hindu fasting traditions. Since it is already familiar to many devotees during vrat, it became an important part of our ingredient philosophy.
Dried Pomegranate Peel
Pomegranate peel has been used in traditional botanical preparations across India for generations. It complements our carefully selected blend of ingredients inspired by traditional practices.
Dried Mango Leaves
Dried mango leaves reflect India's rich botanical heritage and complete our traditional formulation.
Which Product Should You Choose?
If you are observing Ekadashi and prefer a traditional herbal tooth powder, Upvas Dant Manjan is an excellent choice.
If you are looking for a simple botanical blend inspired by traditional household practices, Vrat Tooth Powder may be suitable.
If you specifically want a product developed around the philosophy of Sanatan Dharma fasting traditions, Sanatan Dharma Vrat Hetu Powder is designed with that intention.
As we continue to expand this collection, more Upvas-friendly products will be added to help devotees during different fasting occasions.
Why Thousands of Devotees Trust HariBol Mart

Every order is packed with care because we know these products become part of someone's daily bhakti.
