Gita Jayanti is a Hindu festival that commemorates the day the sacred scripture, the Bhagavad Gita, was first revealed by Lord Krishna to Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. It is celebrated annually on the Ekadashi (eleventh lunar day) of the bright half of the Hindu month of Margashirsha (typically November or December). On this day, Hindus read and reflect on the Gita's teachings, which include the principles of dharma (righteousness), karma (action), and bhakti (devotion).
