Gaura Purnima is a Vaishnava festival that celebrates the birth of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486–1534), who founded Gaudiya Vaishnavism. It occurs on the purnima (full moon day) in the Hindu month Phalguna, usually falling in March or April.[1]
Gaura Purnima means "Golden Full Moon", a reference to Chaitanya. His followers spend this festival fasting and chanting congregationally, then at moonrise a feast is enjoyed by all.[2] It will be celebrated on March 7, 2023.[3]
This festival is celebrated by Gaudiya Vaishnavas as part of Nabadwip-mandala Parikrama.[4]
