Frequently Asked Questions
When is Bengali Vijayadashami in 2027?
Bengali Vijayadashami 2027 falls on Sunday, 10 October 2027. Dashami tithi runs from 09:02 AM, 9 Oct to 11:41 AM, 10 Oct IST, as calculated for Ujjain. Times shift by a few minutes for other cities.
What is Bengali Vijayadashami?
Unlike most of India, Bengal fixes Vijayadashami purely by Dashami tithi, ignoring the afternoon muhurta rule — so it sometimes falls a day later than Dussehra elsewhere. The day opens with darpan visarjan, where Durga is bid farewell through her reflection in a water vessel.
Why is Bengali Vijayadashami observed?
The Bengali sense of the day is shaped by a folk belief, not scripture: Durga has been visiting her parents' home for the puja with her four children — Lakshmi, Saraswati, Ganesha and Kartikeya — and now must return to Shiva on Mount Kailash. That is why farewell, not victory, sets the mood. Married women in red-and-white saris smear sindoor (vermilion) on the goddess's forehead and then on one another — a rite recent Kolkata campaigns have opened to women of every marital status. The autumn timing itself comes from Krittivas's 14th-century Bengali Ramayana, which tells of Rama's 'akalbodhan' (untimely awakening) of Durga to defeat Ravana, including his offering of 108 lotuses. Processions then carry the murti to the river with sweets placed beside her — food for the journey home.
What are the other names for Bengali Vijayadashami?
Bengali Vijayadashami is also known as Bijoya Dashami and Bijoy Dashami.
Which prarthanas are recited on Bengali Vijayadashami?
Durga Kavacham, Nava Durga Stotram and Durga Chalisa are recited on Bengali Vijayadashami. You can listen to them with audio on this page.
