Gaytri Jayanti is observed as the birth anniversary of Goddess Gayatri, the Goddess of Veda.
Being the Goddess of all Veda, Goddess Gayatri is also known as Veda Mata. It is believed that Goddess Gayatri is the manifestation of all phenomenal attributes of Brahman. She is also worshipped as the Goddess of Hindu Trimurti and is considered the mother of all Gods and embodiment of Goddess Saraswti, Goddess Parvati and Goddess Lakshmi. Gayatri Jayanti is observed on Shukla Paksha Ekadashi during Jyeshtha lunar month and is usually observed on the next day of Ganga Dussehra. According to Matantara it is also observed during Shravana Purnima. The Gaytri Jayanti during Shravana Purnima is widely accepted and usually coincides with upakaram day. Devotees observe Gayatri Jayanti by making special prayers to Gayatri Mata and by repeatedly chanting Gaytri mantra .
