Varaha Jayanti
Varaha Jayanti marks Vishnu's third descent — a boar who dove into the cosmic ocean, fought the asura Hiranyaksha for a thousand years, and hoisted the drowned earth-goddess Bhudevi out on a single tusk. Observed on Bhadrapada Shukla Tritiya, a day before Ganesh Chaturthi.

About
The Vishnu Purana reads Varaha's body as a walking sacrifice. His tusks are the yajna stakes, his teeth the offerings, his mouth the altar, his mane the Vedic hymns — the boar is yajna in motion, lifting the earth back into ritual order. Scriptures count three Varahas — Nila, Adi and Shweta — and the present cosmic age is named the Shweta Varaha Kalpa after the third. The oldest great image of this avatar still stands at Udayagiri in Madhya Pradesh: a Gupta-era panel from the 5th century, carved into Cave 5, showing a colossal boar-headed Vishnu with the goddess Bhudevi seated on his shoulder, clutching his right tusk. Britannica notes the story echoes an older creation legend in which Brahma himself took boar form to raise the earth from the primeval waters.

Prarthana, Mantras & Vrat Katha

Every festival has its own prarthanas, stotras and vrat kathas. Reading or listening to them on the festival day is the simplest way to observe the tradition at home.

Inside the Dharmayana app you can listen to:

  • 1000+ prarthanas, mantras and stotras with clear audio
  • Festival-specific kathas — Lakshmi, Durga, Shiva, Ganesha, Krishna
  • Multilingual versions: Sanskrit, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and more

Browse the full collection of prarthanas or get the app to play them on the festival morning without ads.

Festival Date, Tithi & Muhurat

Hindu festivals are tied to a specific Tithi, not a fixed date — so the day shifts every year and even varies slightly across cities.

Open the Panchanga for the festival day to see the exact Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Shubh Muhurat for pooja in your location.

The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.

Personalised Astrology Around Festivals

Festivals are also a good time to look at your kundali — many families plan sankalp, donations or new beginnings around them.

Inside the app you can:

  • Generate your personal Vedic kundali
  • Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
  • Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season

All of this is available inside the Dharmayana app — no fixed schedule, use it whenever you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hindu festivals — like Diwali, Navratri, Mahashivaratri, Holi and Janmashtami — mark sacred moments tied to deities, seasons and lunar/solar cycles. Each festival has its own story, vrat, prarthana and rituals, and is timed using the Panchanga so the date moves slightly every year against the Gregorian calendar.
