Mumbai: In Hinduism, Tuesdays falling during the month of Jyeshtha hold deep spiritual significance and are celebrated as Bada Mangal. In 2025, the month of Jyeshtha will witness five such Tuesdays, with the final and most auspicious one falling on 10 June 2025. This particular day holds double importance as it coincides with Jyeshtha Purnima (the full moon), creating a rare and spiritually potent alignment.
Bada Mangal is especially revered because, according to legend, it marks the divine meeting of Lord Hanuman and Lord Ram during the month of Jyeshtha. As such, devotees believe that worshipping Hanuman Ji on this day removes obstacles, resolves planetary afflictions (grah dosh), and fulfils heartfelt wishes. The last Bada Mangal of 2025 is seen as a golden opportunity to receive the blessings of Sankat Mochan Hanuman.
According to tradition, Budhwa Mangal or Bada Mangal celebrates the day when Lord Hanuman first met Lord Ram—a moment that changed the course of the Ramayana. Devotees flock to Hanuman temples on this day, offering heartfelt prayers and participating in sacred rituals. It is believed that sincere worship on Bada Mangal can dispel misfortune, reduce negative karmic effects, and bring divine protection.
