Akṣaya Tṛtīyā

The Imperishable Third · Golden Day of Eternal Merit

Tuesday, 5 May 2076

Goddess Mahālakṣmī, Lord Kubera, and Lord Viṣṇu bestowing inexhaustible abundance through the divine Akṣaya Pātra
The Imperishable Third: Goddess Mahālakṣmī and Lord Kubera bless the overflowing Akṣaya Pātra as devotees perform sacred charity (dāna).

From the pañchāṅga

Śukla Tṛtīyā begins5 May, 10:05 AM
Ends6 May, 10:54 AM
ObservanceMadhyāhna, midday worship

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.
