This day is dedicated to worshiping knowledge, wisdom, and learning, with a special emphasis on reverence for Jain scriptures and the pursuit of knowledge in all forms. "Gyan" translates to "knowledge," making this day significant for students, scholars, and anyone devoted to personal growth and spiritual learning.

On Gyan Panchami, Jains engage in special rituals and prayers to honour the Jain Agamas (sacred scriptures) and seek blessings from Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge. Temples and libraries are cleaned and decorated, and the holy scriptures are placed on an altar, where devotees offer flowers, incense, and fruits. This act symbolises respect for wisdom and the desire to uphold knowledge as a guiding principle in life.

Many followers observe fasts and spend time in prayer and meditation to purify the mind and seek spiritual insight. Knowledge in Jainism is considered essential to overcoming ignorance, which is seen as a root cause of suffering. Thus, Gyan Panchami is also a reminder to commit to self-discipline, avoid ignorance, and strive for enlightenment through learning, understanding, and reflection. In addition to religious practices, Gyan Panchami promotes educational activities.

Jain communities often organise special sessions, discussions, and lectures about the importance of knowledge and wisdom. Students are encouraged to study and devote themselves to learning on this day, as it is believed to attract blessings that support their educational journey and personal development. Through these celebrations, Gyan Panchami inspires devotees to pursue wisdom, both spiritually and intellectually, as a lifelong commitment. Wishing everyone Happy Gyan Panchami 2024!
