When is Uttam Kshama 2025

In Jainism, Uttam Kshama (Supreme Forgiveness) is observed on the last day of Paryushana, which is known as Samvatsari for the Shwetambar sect and Kshamavani for the Digambar sect.

In 2025:

• For the Shwetambar Jain community, Samvatsari (Uttam Kshama) will be observed on August 29, 2025.
• For the Digambar Jain community, Kshamavani (Uttam Kshama) is likely to be observed on September 6, 2025 (dates may vary based on local calendars).

On this day, Jains seek forgiveness from all living beings for any harm caused knowingly or unknowingly by saying “Micchami Dukkadam.”
