Festival Date, Tithi & Muhurat
Hindu festivals are tied to a specific Tithi, not a fixed date — so the day shifts every year and even varies slightly across cities.
Open the Panchanga for the festival day to see the exact Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Shubh Muhurat for pooja in your location.
The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.
Personalised Astrology Around Festivals
Festivals are also a good time to look at your kundali — many families plan sankalp, donations or new beginnings around them.
Inside the app you can:
- Generate your personal Vedic kundali
- Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
- Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season
All of this is available inside the Dharmayana app — no fixed schedule, use it whenever you need it.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is Baisakhi in 2027?
Baisakhi 2027 falls on Wednesday, 14 April 2027.
What is Baisakhi?
On Baisakhi in 1699, Guru Gobind Singh stepped from a tent at Anandpur with a drawn sword and asked for a head — five men volunteered and became the Panj Pyare, the first Khalsa. The same April day marks Punjab's wheat harvest and the solar new year across India.
Why is Baisakhi observed?
The 1699 initiation used khande ki pahul — sweetened water (amrit) stirred with a double-edged broadsword. After baptising the Panj Pyare, Guru Gobind Singh knelt and took amrit from them, handing his authority to the community. Initiates took the names Singh (lion) and Kaur (princess) and wore the Five Ks. Guru Amar Das, a century earlier, had already fixed Baisakhi as a mandatory gathering at Goindwal, paired with Diwali. On the day itself, every gurdwara lowers its Nishan Sahib (the saffron flag), washes the pole, and hoists a fresh cloth. In the fields, bhangra — named after bhang (hemp), a crop of the season — celebrates the ripening wheat; kitchens cook yellow rice and kadhi to echo its colour. The same date carries a darker memory: the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of April 13, 1919.
What are the other names for Baisakhi?
Baisakhi is also known as Vaishakhi, Visakhi and Basoa.
Which prarthanas are recited on Baisakhi?
Aditya Hrudayam and Ganga Ashtakam are recited on Baisakhi. You can listen to them with audio on this page.
