Akṣaya Tṛtīyā
The Imperishable Third · Golden Day of Eternal Merit
Sunday, 18 May 2284
From the pañchāṅga
Observed on the day Tṛtīyā prevails at midday; some traditions instead take the sunrise tithi, which can fall a day apart in some years.
How it is observed
No fast: the “imperishable third” is kept by beginning auspicious things, giving in charity (dāna), and worshipping Viṣṇu and Lakṣmī; whatever is begun or given today is said never to diminish.
