Margashirsha Purnima 2025 date: This last full moon of the year can give 32 times the results, know why today is special.

Margashirsha Purnima 2025 date: Today i.e. 4th December 2025 is the full moon of Margashirsha month. This day is considered very sacred in Hindu religion because Lord Krishna himself has described the month of Margashirsha (Agahan) as his form. Generally we know Purnima for Satyanarayan Vrat or Ganga Snan, but today’s Purnima has a very unique name- ,‘Battisi Purnima’.

Have you ever wondered why it is called Battisi (32) Purnima? And what special thing should we do today so that blessings remain in the house? Let us understand in simple language.

Why is it called ‘Battisi Purnima’?

There is a very interesting and beneficial mathematics behind this name. According to the scriptures, if a person starts fasting from today and observes the fast continuously for 32 full moon days, then it is called ‘Battisi Purnima Vrat’.
It is believed that the devotee who does this gets 32 times more results of his devotion and worship. That means the worship done on this day is many times more effective than on ordinary days.

Note down the correct time of puja

According to the Panchang, Purnima Tithi has started today (December 4, Thursday) at 08:38 am. This date will remain till 04:43 am tomorrow i.e. 5th December.
Since the entire day today is Purnima Tithi, fasting and worship will be done today only. This coincidence has become even more auspicious due to it being Thursday, because Thursday is the day of Lord Vishnu.

How to do today’s puja? (simple method)

Today is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, Mother Lakshmi and Mother Annapurna. If you are observing Battisi Purnima fast or performing normal puja today, keep these things in mind:

1. Food and drink: Grains (grains) are not eaten during this fast. Today you should eat only fruit items like fruits, milk or sago.
2. Prayer: Offer fruits, flowers, incense-lamps and most importantly Tulsi to Shri Hari and Mata Lakshmi in the home temple. After this, definitely listen to the story of Purnima Vrat.
3. Moon and Sun Worship: This is a rare day when there is a tradition of worshiping both the Sun God and the Moon God. Offer Arghya to the Sun in the morning and water mixed with milk to the Moon in the evening.

What benefits do you get from this?

If seen from a religious perspective, this fast is like a ‘package’.

• Money gain: Financial difficulties are removed by the grace of Goddess Lakshmi.
• Marriage and children: Battisi Purnima fast is considered a panacea for those who are facing obstacles in their marriage or who want the happiness of children.
• Moksha: It opens the way to salvation at the end of life.

It is believed that when your 32 fasts are completed, then do Udyapan and feed food to a Brahmin. It can remove all the faults and sorrows from your life. So today take the name of Shri Hari with devotion, you will definitely get auspicious results.
