Srikrushna Janmashtami Puja (ଶ୍ରୀ କୃଷ୍ଣ ଜନ୍ମାଷ୍ଟମୀ ପୂଜା) – Celebrate the Divine Birth of Lord Krishna
🌟 Invoke the divine presence of Shri Krishna with devotion, joy, and spiritual celebrations at your home or temple. 🕊️
Srikrushna Janmashtami, also known as Krishna Jayanti, is one of the most celebrated Hindu festivals marking the birth of Lord Krishna, the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. It falls on the Ashtami Tithi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Bhadrapada, which typically occurs in August or September.
Devotees observe fasting, night-long vigils (Jagaran), bhajans, and midnight puja rituals to celebrate the divine arrival of Kanha. Homes and temples are decorated with lights, jhankis (dioramas), and swings (jhula) for the infant Krishna. It is believed that those who perform Janmashtami Puja with true devotion are blessed with peace, happiness, and divine protection.
