When is parushyan starting 2025

In Jainism, Paryushan (sometimes spelled Parushyan or Paryushana) is the most important annual festival, observed by both the Shwetambar and Digambar sects, though the dates and duration may differ slightly.

For 2025:

• Shwetambar Jains: Paryushan is typically celebrated for 8 days. In 2025, Paryushan is expected to begin on Friday, August 22, and end on Friday, August 29 (Samvatsari, the day of forgiveness).
• Digambar Jains: Das Lakshan Parva usually starts one day after Samvatsari and lasts for 10 days. In 2025, it is expected to begin on Saturday, August 30.

Dates can vary slightly based on the lunar calendar and local traditions, so it is always good to confirm with your local Jain temple or community closer to the festival.
