Ayurveda Day 2025 will be observed on September 23, marking the first time it is celebrated on a fixed date instead of Dhanteras, which varied every year due to the lunar calendar. The Ministry of Ayush made this change through a Gazette Notification issued on March 23, 2025, to ensure consistency and global recognition of Ayurveda. The chosen date coincides with the autumnal equinox, symbolizing balance in nature—an essential principle of Ayurveda. With the theme “Ayurveda for People and Planet,” the observance underscores Ayurveda’s role in preventive healthcare, sustainable living, and global ecological balance.
