💙 What is Krishna Janmashtami?
Krishna Janmashtami, also known as Gokulashtami, celebrates the divine birth of Lord Krishna.
भगवान श्रीकृष्ण को भगवान विष्णु का आठवां अवतार माना जाता है। मान्यता के अनुसार उनका जन्म मथुरा में मध्यरात्रि के समय हुआ था। इसलिए Janmashtami celebrations में midnight पूजा और जन्मोत्सव का विशेष महत्व होता है.
Devotees celebrate the festival by keeping fasts, visiting temples, singing Krishna bhajans, performing पूजा, decorating homes and temples, and sharing “Happy Janmashtami” wishes with family and friends.
In many places, children are dressed as Bal Krishna and Radha Rani, while beautiful Jhankis and Krishna-themed decorations are created.
