When Is Mauni Amavasya in 2025?

According to religious beliefs, performing donations and ancestor worship (Pitru Poojan) on Mauni Amavasya ensures a life free from hardships, bringing prosperity and blessings from forefathers.

In 2025, Mauni Amavasya will be observed on January 29. On this day, the third royal bath (Shahi Snan) of the Mahakumbh in Prayagraj will also take place. This rare conjunction of Mauni Amavasya with the Mahakumbh royal bath is considered highly fruitful.

The Double Benefits Of Bathing On Mauni Amavasya:

Taking a holy dip in sacred rivers during the Magha month is deemed virtuous, but the spiritual merit multiplies manifold on Mauni Amavasya. Observing complete silence on this day is said to bring remarkable health benefits and profound knowledge.

Those suffering from mental health issues, fear, or anxiety are particularly encouraged to take a holy dip on this day as it is believed to provide relief from such problems.

Significance Of Mauni Amavasya:

  • Bathing in holy rivers and feeding the underprivileged are considered extremely rewarding on this day. It helps expiate sins committed knowingly or unknowingly.
  • Maintaining silence throughout the day is believed to enhance health and wisdom.
  • The sacred bath on Mauni Amavasya aids in alleviating mental disorders, fear, and delusions.
  • Observing this fast with complete devotion and discipline can eliminate planetary afflictions from one’s astrological chart.
