Mumbai: Parashurama Jayanti holds deep spiritual significance in Sanatan Dharma as it commemorates the birth anniversary of Lord Parashurama, the sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Known for his fierce form and unwavering devotion to dharma, Parashurama is believed to bless devotees with knowledge, courage, and strength. Celebrated on the Tritiya Tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Vaishakh, this day is also observed as Akshaya Tritiya, making it highly auspicious for religious rituals and new beginnings.
In 2025, Parashurama Jayanti will be observed on Tuesday, 29 April. According to the Vedic Panchang, the Tritiya Tithi begins at 5:31 PM on 29 April and ends at 2:12 PM on 30 April. As scriptures state that Lord Parashurama was born during Pradosh Kaal (dusk), the celebration is ideally performed in the evening hours of 29 April.
