Gita Jayanti 2025 Puja Vidhi

Performing the Gita Jayanti puja is simple and can be done at home with devotion and purity. Begin the day by waking up early, taking a bath, and wearing clean clothes. Place an idol or photo of Lord Krishna and purify the surroundings by sprinkling Gangajal.

Light a ghee lamp in front of the deity and apply tilak to Lord Krishna. Offer flowers, tulsi leaves, sweets, fruits, and naivedya. Keep a copy of the Bhagavad Gita beside the deity on a clean cloth as a mark of respect. If reading the entire Gita isn't possible, devotees are encouraged to recite Chapter 12 (Bhakti Yog) or Chapter 15, both considered highly auspicious.

Finally, chant Lord Krishna’s mantras, meditate on His teachings, and conclude the rituals by performing Krishna Aarti with devotion.
