Many devotees also worship Vasudeva avatar of Lord Vishnu. There are also several legends about the significance of the day. According to the Hindu mythology, on the occasion of Akshaya Tritiya, holy river Ganges descended on earth. Another legend claim Veda Vyasa began reciting the Hindu epic Mahabharata to Lord Ganesha on Akshaya Tritiya. The significant mentions of Lord Vishnu, Lord Ganesh who is the God of Good Luck and Prosperity and Goddess Lakshmi who is associated with wealth and well-being forms the crux of these messages and wishes of Akshaya Tritiya.
In Jainism, Akshaya Tritiya is observed to honour the first Tirthankara's (Rishabhanatha) ending his one-year asceticism.
