The Akshaya Patra to the Pandavas

During their twelve-year exile, the Pandavas received the Akshaya Patra from Surya Deva on this very tithi. This inexhaustible vessel provided unlimited food to all who sought it until Draupadi had eaten — a divine embodiment of the day's principle that giving on Akshaya Tritiya yields inexhaustible merit.
