Autistic Pride Day 2024: Date, theme, history, significance and all you need to know
Every year, people with autism gather to celebrate Autistic Pride Day. This day recognizes the value of pride for individuals with autism and its role in promoting constructive social change. To celebrate the abilities, qualities, and distinctive viewpoints of people on the autism spectrum, autistic people, their families, and allies come together. It advocates for inclusivity, equality, and respect for autistic voices while celebrating the accomplishments and contributions of autistic people in a variety of sectors. The day aims to create a more open and welcoming society for everyone by fostering a sense of pride, empowerment, and solidarity among the autistic community. To learn more about this day, scroll down to read about its history and date.
Date and Theme of Autism Pride Day in 2024
Every year on June 18, which happens to be a Tuesday this year, people celebrate Autism Pride Day. This year’s topic, “Taking the Mask Off,” emphasizes the value of accepting one’s innate preferences, behaviors, and modes of interaction with the outside world. This topic is powerful and freeing; it encourages people with autism to be themselves and to resist social pressures to hide who they really are.
History of Autism Pride Day in 2024
Aspies For Freedom (AFF) first observed Autistic Pride Day in 2005. They picked June 18 to commemorate the birthday of the group’s youngest member at the time. The celebration was modeled by AFF after the gay pride movement. Co-founder of Autism Rights Group Highland (ARGH) Kabie Brook emphasises that the day is not a venue for other charities or organisations to promote themselves or overshadow autistic voices, but rather a grassroots autistic community event that was started and is still run by autistic individuals themselves. This day is represented by the rainbow infinity symbol, which stands for “diversity with infinite variations and infinite possibilities.”
Importance of World Autism Awareness Day
As the name suggests, Autism Pride Day is a very important event that raises public awareness of the difficulties experienced by those who have autism. Our goal should be to treat autistic people with understanding and respect in order to eliminate stigma. This day should also emphasize providing equal opportunity for individuals with autism.

Nirjala Ekadashi 2024: All the information you need to know about the date, history, shubh muhurat, and significance
In the Hindu month of Jyeshtha, on the eleventh lunar day of the waxing phase, comes Nirjala Ekadashi, a significant Hindu holy day. The waterless fast that followers of this day practice is the source of the name “Nirjala”. Nirjala Ekadashi is considered the most austere and sacred of the 24 ekadashis. If observed fervently, it is said to confer the same virtue as observing all the other ekadashis of the year. It is also known as “Pandava Bhima Ekadashi,” “Jyestha Shukla Ekadashi,” and “Pandava Nirjala Ekadashi.” This day is devoted to Lord Vishnu. Scroll down to learn more about this auspicious occasion, from date to history.
Nirjala Ekadashi 2024 is when? Recognize the date and time.
This year, on Tuesday, June 18, the important Hindu holiday of Nirjala Ekadashi will be held. Drik Pachang states that the following are lucky times to commemorate the occasion:
Time in Parana: 06:05 AM until 07:28 AM
Dwadashi end time on Parana day is 07:28 AM.
Ekadashi tithi starts on June 17, 2024, at 04:43 AM.
Ekadashi tithi finishes on June 18, 2024, at 06:24 AM.
History of Nirjala Ekadashi 2024
Bhima, the second and most powerful of the five Pandava brothers in the Hindu epic Mahabharata, is the inspiration behind the name Nirjala Ekadashi. The Brahma Vaivarta Purana states that Bhima, who had an intense love of eating, attempted to keep all ekadashi fasts but was unable to suppress his appetite. He went to the sage Vyasa, the grandfather of the Pandavas and the author of the Mahabharata, in search of a solution. Vyasa counseled him to keep a severe fast on Nirjala Ekadashi, which falls on one day every year. Bhima achieved the virtue of all 24 ekadashis by performing this.
Relevance of the Nirjala Ekadashi
The Vishnu and Markandeya Puras claim that Ekadashi is a manifestation of Vishnu in and of itself. It is said that keeping the vrata (fast) on this day will atone for all sins. It is said that completing the Nirjala Ekadashi vrata wins the favor of Vishnu, bestowing upon the devotee bliss, prosperity, and pardon for transgressions. The merit accruing from observing all 24 of the year’s ekadashis is given to the devotee. Vaishnavas are particularly well-liked and adhere to this fast.
It is stated that the spectator attains moksha, or salvation, and long life. After a person passes away, their soul is usually retrieved by the emissaries of Yama, the god of death, who then decides whether to send them to Naraka (hell) or Svarga (heaven). But individuals who follow the Nirjala Ekadashi customs are thought to be exempt from Yama’s judgment and are instead taken by Vishnu’s messengers to Vaikuntha, Vishnu’s abode, after death.
