Sun May 11 15:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Buddha Purnima 2025 to be Celebrated on May 12th

**New Delhi, [Date of Publication]** – Buddha Purnima, the auspicious full moon day commemorating the birth, enlightenment, and death of Lord Buddha, will be observed on May 12th, 2025. According to the Panchang (Hindu calendar), the Purnima Tithi begins on May 11th at 8:01 PM and ends on May 12th at 10:25 PM. However, the Udayatithi (sunrise tithi) falls on May 12th, making it the official day of celebration.

The day is considered highly auspicious for taking a holy bath (snana-dan) in sacred rivers like the Ganga and Yamuna, believed to bestow the merits of many yagnas (sacrificial rituals). Worship of Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu is also recommended to bring prosperity and well-being.

Auspicious timings for rituals include the Brahma Muhurta (4:08 AM to 4:50 AM) and Ravi Yoga (5:32 AM to 6:17 AM). The most auspicious time for rituals is between 8:55 AM and 10:36 AM. Devotees can chant the mantra “ॐ श्रीं ह्रीं क्लीं श्री सिद्ध लक्ष्म्यै नम:” and perform Lakshmi Chalisa recitation to please Goddess Lakshmi. Other remedies are suggested for marital issues and financial difficulties.
