Make a Powerful Impact This Akshay Tritiya in Varanasi
Akshay Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar. Falling on the third lunar day of the bright half (Shukla Paksha) of the month of Vaishakha, this day is considered Akshaya – meaning “eternal” or “that which never diminishes”.
Any act of charity or spiritual activity performed on this day multiplies in value, leading to unending blessings and merit.
This sacred day is believed to be the birthday of Lord Parashurama (the sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu), and also marks the beginning of Treta Yuga. It’s a day when people engage in daana (charity), japa (chanting), snan (holy bathing), and pujan (worship).
Importance of Varanasi in Spiritual Practices
Varanasi – the eternal city on the banks of the Ganges – is not just a geographical place but a tirtha (spiritual crossing). It is believed that performing any ritual or charity in Kashi, especially on auspicious occasions like Akshay Tritiya, carries a hundred times more merit than elsewhere. The divine energy of this holy city magnifies the spiritual benefits of good deeds, and hence, Annadaan in Varanasi on this day becomes an act of punya (righteous merit) that purifies the soul and blesses generations.
Annadaan – The Supreme Donation
In Hindu dharma, Annadaan (the donation of food) is regarded as the highest form of charity. It is said:
“Anna Daanam Maha Daanam” – Among all donations, food donation is supreme.
Donating food on Akshay Tritiya ensures that the donor and their ancestors are blessed with abundance, peace, and spiritual upliftment. Feeding the hungry is considered equivalent to worshipping the divine.
Offering Halwa-Chana to Maa Annapurna
On Akshay Tritiya in Varanasi, there is a deeply spiritual tradition of offering Halwa (sweet dish made of wheat flour, ghee, and sugar) and Chana (boiled chickpeas) to Maa Annapurna, the goddess of nourishment. The offering symbolizes gratitude for the food we receive and is an appeal for never-ending abundance in life.
Maa Annapurna is the manifestation of Divine Mother Parvati who blesses devotees with food, health, and prosperity. Offering her Halwa-Chana on this divine day ensures her blessings for uninterrupted sustenance and grace.
