Happy Krishna Janmashtami
May Lord Krishna be with you and your family, always! Blessings of Health, Wealth, Love, and Happiness.
Krishna Janmashtami is celebrated on the 8th day of the month of Shravana, according to the Hindu calendar. This year the festival will be celebrated on August 30, followed by Dahi Handi celebrations on August 31.
The festival is celebrated with great pomp and show to celebrate the ‘Lord of Love’. The festivities last for two days and on the first day, devotees observe a fast and stay up past midnight, which is the time He was born, and share stories about his great deeds and sing his praises. On the second day, young boys band together to form a pyramid to steal ‘makkan’, in an attempt to replicate the events that Lord Krishna was a part of in his childhood
