What is Akshaya Tritiya and Its Significance in Hindu Culture?

Hindu religion can be best defined as a set of beliefs and traditions that enroot in a deep sea of scientific facts and phenomena that were observed by some brilliant souls millions of years ago. Every single month, day, moment holds its own importance that cannot be overlooked considering the constant churning of universal cycles. The high stature of ‘Akshaya Tritiya’ among all Indian tithis (Indian days) presents a perfect example of how Hindu traditions emphasize on making the best of every moment. ‘Akshaya’ is a Sanskrit term which means imperishable – something that wouldn’t destruct with time and will remain forever. ‘Tritiya’, on the other hand, is again a Sanskrit term used to denote the third day in lunar cycle.

Akshaya Tritiya falls on 3rd day of after new moon in the month of Vaishakh. The reason why it is considered to be so auspicious is the belief that a year of human life stands equal to one day of Devtas (celestial beings). The month of Vaishakh is considered as their morning when they wake up with all new energies ready to bless every new beginning with positive sanctions that come under their realization. The waxing of Moon during this period marks rise of new strength that wouldn’t diminish for a long time. It is also the day when both luminaries – Sun and Moon – attain maximum brightness showering unusual charm to any and everything that comes under their affect.

The Celestial (Devic) nuance of Akshaya Tritiya makes it highly suitable for four types of activities:

  • Yajanam – the propitious act of offering auspicious things to divine powers.
  • Yaajanam – allowing others to make new beginnings, for e.g. marriage, inauguration, home-coming, etc.
  • Dhaanam – donating useful things to the needy and poor.
  • Pratigraham – acquisition of new property and assets including gold, silver, land, house, etc.

The scriptures also say that any of the above mentioned four acts performed on this day will have ‘sahtragunabalm” which means 1000 times stronger effect than regular one. If you donate 1gm of Gold on this day, it will return to you as 1000gms, so is for food, clothes, and other items. Similarly, acquisitions or investments made on this day automatically get associated with 1000 fold returns in future.

The history of Hindu religion is full of numerous events that took place on Akshaya Tritiya and that turned out to be highly felicitous for all. The most primary one was that the lord of universal wealth and property – Lord Kuber – took this position on the very day of Akshaya Tritiya (one of the major reasons why this day holds such grand importance for KUBERBOX). There are several other such anecdotes that prove the propitious nature of this day, the major ones are as follows:

  • Parashuram, who reclaimed land from ocean, was born on this particular day.
  • The goddess of all food and grains, Maa Annapoorna, was born in this day.
  • River Ganges that bestows a wide part of our nation with green prosperity and wealth, came to earth on this very day.
  • Sudama, the poor friend of Lord Krishna, met him on this very day after which his complete life changed as he was blessed with abundant luxuries and riches.

Why Buying Gold Is So Auspicious On This Particular Day?

The next question that naturally seeps into mind is why do people usually go only for gold and not other stuff? The reason why Hindu culture gives supreme importance to this yellow metal is because the purity it attains after evolving through fire. Fire symbolises the most undiluted and brightest forms of energy that purges everything that comes under its influence. In our culture, sacred things symbolise prosperity and good fortune which is why gold gets preference over all other acquisitions and assets. It is equally noteworthy that gold has always been preferably gifted to ladies on all important occasions as their birth right. The logic that runs behind this is that ladies in previous eras were less educated and more prone to be tricked by other half of society. If she had some gold in her hand, she could always use it as her insurance under unkind circumstances and save her family. It is she and only she who hold the right to wear, trade, accumulate, and possess gold for safety of her loved ones.

The Religious Aspect of Akshaya Tritiya

The fruits borne on Akshaya Tritiya are considered eternal which keeps multiplying with time. It is customary to worship lord Vishnu, the preserver, on this particular day. Lord Vishnu stands to preserve every venture, be it personal quest or business, and fulfil it with desired results. He is also the better half of Maa Lakshmi, the supreme goddess of affluence and wealth in all forms. She is the main power that drives Vishnu to fulfil his tasks and therefore holds central position in every single thing he does. She resides only where her husband stays and gets due respect. Therefore, it is a must to worship lord Vishnu in case you wish to seek blessings of mother Lakshmi.
