Parshuram Jayanti 2027: Date, Timing and Mantra

Parshuram Jayanti

Parshuram Jayanti 2027 falls on Saturday, 8 May. Tritiya Tithi begins at 11:42 AM on 8 May and ends at 9:03 AM on 9 May. Lord Parshuram was born during Pradosh Kaal, and Tritiya prevails during Pradosh Kaal (7:00 PM to 9:07 PM in New Delhi) only on 8 May, so the Jayanti is observed a day before Akshaya Tritiya (9 May). He is the sixth avatar of Lord Vishnu, son of Sage Jamadagni and Renuka, and one of the eight Chiranjeevis (immortals).

Parshuram Jayanti is celebrated as the birth anniversary of the sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. God Parshuram was born on the third day of Shukla Paksha of the Hindu month of Vaishakha. He was born during Pradosh Kala and hence, on this day when Tritiya prevails during Pradosh Kala, it is considered best for Parshuram Jayanti celebrations. The Kalki Puran states that Parshuram is the martial guru of Shri Kalki, the tenth and final avatar of Lord Vishnu in Kaliyuga.

Moreover, Parshuram Jayanti is also celebrated as Akshaya Tritiya. The day marks the beginning of the Treta Yuga and it is believed that good deeds performed on this day never go unrewarded. Thus, this day is religiously important and is observed as Parshuram Jayanti.

Parshuram Jayanti Details & Legend:

Lord Parshuram, the sixth incarnation of Vishnu, was born to Renuka and Jamadagni, one of the Saptrishis or Seven Rishis. He is considered to be the epitome of devotion and love for parents. As per Hindu texts it is believed that once his father Jamadagni, angered by a momentary lapse of Renuka, ordered his sons to kill her. When his elder brothers refused, Parshuram obeyed without hesitation. Pleased with his obedience, Jamadagni offered him a boon, and Parshuram asked for his mother to be restored to life. Renuka was revived, with no memory of what had happened.

According to the epic Mahabharata Vana Parva, Kartavirya Arjuna was a legendary king of the Haihaya kingdom, with its capital at Mahishmati (present-day Maheshwar, Madhya Pradesh), who became self-obsessed with his powers. Arrogance made him resort to atrocities against humans, Gods, and Yakshas. During the same period, he happened to visit the hermitage of Renuka and Jamadagni who warmly welcomed him. But Kartavirya was blind-folded with pride and in exchange for the couple’s kindness, he demanded an offensive return. Instead of returning the hospitality, the king forcibly carried away the sage’s sacred calf. Enraged, Parshuram killed Kartavirya Arjuna. In revenge, the king’s sons killed Jamadagni. Parshuram then vowed to rid the Earth of tyrannical Kshatriya kings, and is said to have done so twenty-one times. Fearing death, the kings fled to distant places. Kashyap Muni who was a testimony to this sight pacified Parshuram and asked him to leave Earth and reside in the mountains. Since then, Lord Parshuram has been residing on the Mahendra mountain.

It is also believed that Parshuram is the martial guru of Shri Kalki and appeared before Lord Rama after He broke Lord Shiva’s bow at Sita’s swayamvara, the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu, in the Treta Yug.
