The Essence of Janmashtami

Janmashtami, also known as Krishna Janmashtami or Gokulashtami, marks the birth of Lord Krishna, who is considered the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu. It usually falls on the eighth day of the Hindu calendar month of Bhadrapada, which corresponds to August or September in the Gregorian calendar. Lord Krishna's birth is celebrated with fervor and devotion because he is believed to be the embodiment of divine love, wisdom, and playfulness.

Devotees fast, visit temples, sing devotional songs, and immerse themselves in the life and teachings of Lord Krishna during Janmashtami. In the evening, the birth of Lord Krishna is celebrated with great enthusiasm, including the tradition of breaking the Dahi Handi (a pot filled with curd) in memory of the playful nature of young Krishna.

Embrace the Tradition of Dressing Up

One of the most exciting parts of Janmashtami is the opportunity to dress up in ethnic wear that reflects the timeless charm of Lord Krishna and Radha. The traditional attire of Lord Krishna, often characterized by a dhoti, peacock feather crown, and a flute, is an iconic look that symbolizes his youthful and charismatic personality. Similarly, the attire of Radha, with her vibrant sarees and intricate jewellery, represents divine beauty and devotion.
