Guru Purnima 2025 — Date, Significance, And Why It Falls On Ashadh Purnima

Ashadh Purnima 2025 falls on July 10. Know its significance, Guru Purnima rituals, puja muhurat, and how worshipping Vishnu and Ved Vyas on this day fulfills wishes and removes sins.

Ashadh Purnima 2025: According to the Hindu Panchang, each month's name is based on the nakshatra in which the Moon is positioned on the Purnima day. In the month of Ashadh, the Moon resides in the Purvashada Nakshatra on the final day of the Shukla Paksh, which is why this day is called Ashadh Purnima.

Ashadh Purnima holds great spiritual importance. On this day, devotees worship Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi with devotion. It is also celebrated as Guru Purnima and Vyas Purnima, as per religious belief, because sage Ved Vyas, the revered author of the Mahabharata and compiler of the Veds, was born on this day.
