Final Budhwa Mangal Rituals for June 10: A Sacred Tuesday of Devotion

The last and most auspicious Budhwa Mangal of the year falls on Tuesday, June 10, 2025. Also called Bada Mangal, this spiritual Tuesday is dedicated to Lord Hanuman, and is observed with immense devotion, especially in North India—particularly in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and parts of Madhya Pradesh.

🛕 What is Budhwa Mangal?

Budhwa Mangal is a sequence of Tuesdays observed during the Hindu month of Jyeshtha, usually in May–June. Devotees believe that Lord Hanuman appeared before Tulsidas on one such Tuesday, blessing him to complete the Ramcharitmanas. As a result, the day is marked by fasting, chanting the Hanuman Chalisa, visiting temples, and organizing communal meals (bhandaras).

This year’s final Budhwa Mangal sees temples preparing for massive footfall:

• Temples in Lucknow, such as the famous Hanuman Setu Mandir and Aliganj Hanuman Mandir, expect lakhs of devotees.
• Special aartis and sundarkaand recitations will take place from early morning till midnight.
• Local volunteers have been deployed to manage crowds and distribute prasadam to fasting devotees.

🙏 Rituals to Follow on Budhwa Mangal:

1. Early Morning Bath – Preferably before sunrise.
2. Visit Hanuman Temples – Offer sindoor, boondi laddoos, and red flowers.
3. Chanting – Recite Hanuman Chalisa, Bajrang Baan, or Sunderkand.
4. Fasting – Many observe nirjala (waterless) or phalahar (fruit-only) fasts.
5. Charity (daan) – Donating food, clothes, or supporting temple bhandaras earns spiritual merit.

✨ Significance of the Final Tuesday

The last Budhwa Mangal is considered the most powerful of the series, as it symbolizes the culmination of one’s spiritual discipline and devotion. It’s said that wishes made on this day with a pure heart are blessed by Bajrangbali himself.
