However, we also offer Sri Ganpati Puja of every month on Chaturthi tithi, (also known as Sankashti Chaturthi). It is considered the day of Lord Ganesha and performing Ganesha Puja on this day helps one to remove every time the coming obstacles.

HISTORY OF JANMASHTAMI

Lord Krishna was born at Mathura on the eighth day of the Bhadrapada month’s dark fortnight. He was the son of Devaki and Vasudeva. Mathura was ruled by Krishna’s uncle, King Kansa, who wished to kill his sister’s children since a prophecy said that the couple’s eighth son would bring Kansa’s demise. Kansa imprisoned Devaki and Vasudeva after the prophecy and was responsible for the deaths of their first six children. During the birth of their seventh child, Balram, the embryo mystically moved from Devaki’s womb to Princess Rohini’s. The palace fell silent when their eighth child, Krishna, was born. Vasudeva rescued the child and took him to Nand Baba and Yashodha’s residency in Vrindavan.

Vasudeva returned to the palace with a baby girl and delivered her to Kansa after the transaction. When the evil monarch attempted to slay the baby, she transformed into Goddess Durga and warned him of his doom. Krishna grew up in Vrindavan in this manner, eventually killing his uncle Kansa. Outside of India, around 80% of Nepal’s population identifies as Hindus and celebrates Krishna Janmashtami. They fast till midnight on Janmashtami to commemorate the festival.

The Janmashtami festival is celebrated by Hindus worldwide, not just in India. In Nepal and Bangladesh, for example, Janmashtami is a national holiday. In addition, Lord Krishna has been worshipped in Mauritius since the 18th century by ‘Jahazi Bhais,’ a group of identifiers from many castes.

This Shri Krishna Janmashtami, eliminate the Kansa in you to restore Dharma. May only goodness prevail. Here's wishing a very Happy Shri Krishna Janmashtami to you and your family.
