Mumbai: Akshaya Tritiya, one of the most significant dates in the Hindu calendar, will be observed this year on 30 April 2025. The day is devoted to the worship of Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi, and is considered highly auspicious for beginning new ventures, making investments, or conducting sacred rituals. Known as one of the most favourable occasions in the year, Akshaya Tritiya is especially renowned for the tradition of buying gold, which is believed to bring lasting wealth and prosperity.
Gold purchases on Akshaya Tritiya are not merely a cultural custom but are deeply rooted in religious beliefs and mythological tales. According to Hindu tradition, buying gold on this day invites blessings from Goddess Lakshmi—the deity of wealth—ensuring peace, abundance, and good fortune in the household. Let’s explore the spiritual significance behind this golden tradition.
Why is Gold Bought on Akshaya Tritiya?
In Hindu belief, gold is considered a physical embodiment of Goddess Lakshmi. A popular legend associated with Akshaya Tritiya traces its roots to the Samudra Manthan (churning of the cosmic ocean), when various divine treasures emerged—including gold. It is said that Lord Vishnu accepted the gold, and since then, it has been revered as a symbol of divine prosperity.
This connection makes Akshaya Tritiya and Dhanteras especially important for gold purchases. It is believed that bringing home gold on Akshaya Tritiya signifies the arrival of Goddess Lakshmi herself. Devotees believe that wealth or property bought on this day remains “Akshaya” – meaning never-ending or eternal – and continues to grow manifold over time.
More than Just Gold
While gold takes centre stage, people also choose to buy silver, vehicles, property, and other assets on Akshaya Tritiya. These purchases are seen as auspicious and are believed to invite ongoing growth and success. The spiritual undertone of the day makes it a perfect time for families to invest in jewellery or start new financial ventures, trusting that the divine energy will support their prosperity.
So, whether you’re planning to buy gold jewellery, invest in a new asset, or begin a new journey, Akshaya Tritiya 2025 could be the ideal day to take that first step—with faith and abundance by your side.
