Why do people buy gold on Akshaya Tritiya?

There are many religious legends associated with the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya.

  1. One prevalent tale is related to the god of wealth Lord Kuber, who once ruled Lanka before his step-brother Ravan usurped his wealth and kingdom. After being banished from his own land, Lord Kuber spent his entire life seeking the blessings of Lord Brahma and Shiva. He was then gifted a city namely Alkapuri by Lord Viswakarma.The Hindu epic Mahabharata notes it was on the day of Akshaya Tritiya when Lord Kuber took ownership of his new land. It is suggested that worshipping Kuber on this day blesses devotees with unending prosperity and wealth.
  2. Another tale makes reference to Lord Krishna’s visit to the Pandavas in Mahabharata when the siblings were exiled to the forest. Draupadi, the wife of the Pandavas, couldn’t offer food to the holy deity. It was at that moment when Lord Krishna consumed a leaf stuck to their food vessel to satiate his hunger.The holy deity also gifted the Pandavas with Akshaya Patra from Lord Sun, a magical vessel that provided them with endless food throughout their exile. Many believed that buying gold on Akshaya Tritiya result in its multiplication just like Akshaya Patra.
