According to Hindu scriptures, Akshaya Navami is the day when Satya Yuga began—the age of truth, righteousness, and purity. It is believed that anything done on this day, whether charity, fasting, or puja, becomes Akshaya—it never diminishes but multiplies manifold.
The Amla (Indian Gooseberry) tree is said to be the abode of Lord Vishnu on this day. Performing Amla Puja and eating food beneath this tree brings divine blessings and washes away sins of past births.

In Ayodhya, this day is also celebrated as Ayodhya Mahotsav, as it is believed that Lord Rama visited Ayodhya on this day after his return from exile. The entire city is decorated with lamps and flowers.
