Description
Gita Jayanti (ଗୀତା ଜୟନ୍ତୀ) – Celebrating the Birth of the Bhagavad Gita
📖 Honor the eternal wisdom of Lord Krishna and the divine song of Dharma 🙏
Gita Jayanti (ଗୀତା ଜୟନ୍ତୀ) marks the sacred day when Lord Krishna revealed the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, as described in the epic Mahabharata. It falls on the Shukla Ekadashi of Margashirsha month, typically in December, and is celebrated by devotees across India as the birth of timeless wisdom.
The Bhagavad Gita, meaning “Song of the Divine”, is more than a scripture—it is a guide to life, righteousness (Dharma), and liberation (Moksha). Gita Jayanti is a day of study, chanting, reflection, and spiritual awakening.
