Baglamukhi Jayanti 2027 Date And Tithi

It is observed on the Ashtami Tithi (8th day of the lunar month) of the Vaishakha lunar month 

Origins of This Festival

This festival is to commemorate the appearance of Goddess Baglamukhi to bring order to the universe.

The goddess killed all evil forces by controlling Madan’s speech and actions, and showing her ability to destroy the negative effects of evil words and negative intentions from Madan, the demon who was attempting to stop good (Dharma) from a universal perspective. 

Bagalmukhi Jayanti Significance

The significance of Baglamukhi Jayanti applies predominantly to people working in political office, legal representation, litigation, media and spiritual practices. As the goddess of Baglamukhi, also known as the “Pitambara Devi”, is venerated primarily for her capacity to balance two different or opposing energies/the extreme left and right, and thus keep them calm together.

Her name, Baglamukhi, is derived from “Valga” (meaning to restrain, hold in check or control) and “Mukhi” (meaning face or word), which is indicative of her capacity to immobilize or restrict the verbal expression or actions of all her rivals and enemies.

She is frequently venerated for the following reasons:

• For protection against adversaries and malevolent powers
• The triumph in matters pertaining to the law, politics, and competition
• A command of the art of communication, debate, and public speaking
• Fortitude, steadiness, and the ability to triumph against challenges that lie within

What’s the story of Baglamukhi Jayanti?

According to ancient texts, Lord Vishnu performed severe penance to reduce the impact of a terrible cyclone that was destroying the world. As a reward for this penance, Goddess Mahatripura came to Vishnu and calmed the storm.

According to legend, Goddess Baglamukhi emerged at midnight on a Chaturdashi from the Haridra Sarovar (turmeric lake) in the Saurashtra region. Her Jayanti, however, is celebrated on Vaishakha Shukla Ashtami.
