Gayatri Jayanti 2025 will be celebrated on Friday, June 6, marking the divine birth anniversary of Goddess Gayatri, also revered as Veda Mata—the Mother of all Vedas. Observed on the Ekadashi Tithi of Shukla Paksha in the month of Jyeshtha, this spiritually powerful day follows Ganga Dussehra and is dedicated to chanting the Gayatri Mantra, considered one of the most sacred hymns in Hinduism.

Goddess Gayatri is considered the divine embodiment of knowledge, wisdom, and light. Known as the Veda Mata (Mother of Vedas), she represents the essence of the Rigveda, the oldest of the Vedas. She is believed to be a manifestation of all divine feminine forces—Goddess Saraswati, Goddess Lakshmi, and Goddess Parvati—and the energy of the Trimurti (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva).
Significance of Gayatri Jayanti
Gayatri Jayanti is not just a celebration but a spiritual awakening. It marks the day when Goddess Gayatri incarnated to bestow divine wisdom and remove ignorance. Devotees believe that chanting the Gayatri Mantra on this day brings enlightenment, peace, and freedom from negative karma.
Gayatri Jayanti Puja Vidhi
Here’s how devotees celebrate Jyeshtha Gayatri Jayanti:
- Wake up early during Brahma Muhurat and take a holy bath.
- Set up an altar or place a photo/idol of Goddess Gayatri.
- Offer flowers, incense, diya, and pure water to the deity.
- Chant the Gayatri Mantra 108 times or in multiples of 108:
“Om Bhur Bhuvah Swah,
Tat Savitur Varenyam,
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi,
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat.”
- Participate in community pujas or satsangs, if available.
- Practice daan-punya (charity) as an act of spiritual service.
While Jyeshtha Shukla Ekadashi is traditionally observed as Gayatri Jayanti, some sects celebrate it on Shravana Purnima, which coincides with Upakarma Day—a ritual day for the renewal of Vedic studies. The variation exists due to different Matantaras (scriptural interpretations).
Gayatri Jayanti 2025 is a divine opportunity to connect with Vedic wisdom, honor Goddess Gayatri, and unlock the transformative power of the Gayatri Mantra. Whether you're a spiritual seeker or a daily devotee, this sacred day is a reminder that true light and wisdom begin from within.
