Bhadrapada Month 2025: The Bhadrapada Maas holds great significance in Hinduism as a time of devotion, reflection and spiritual growth. Falling between August and September, this lunar month is considered highly auspicious for worshipping deities like Lord Krishna, Lord Ganesha, and Goddess Durga. Devotees engage in fasting, rituals and prayers to seek blessings, prosperity and protection. Bhadrapada is also linked with the onset of the monsoon’s retreat, symbolising renewal and cleansing both in nature and the spirit.

In North India, the Bhadrapada month 2025 began on 10th August and ends on 7th September. It hosts several important festivals that deepen its spiritual importance. These include Krishna Janmashtami, Ganesh Chaturthi, Hartalika Teej, etc. These vibrant celebrations foster community bonding and reinforce cultural and religious traditions throughout the month.
