Janmashtami is celebrated on the Ashtami (eighth day) of Krishna Paksha (dark fortnight) in the month of Shravana Janmashtami On 14th August 2017.
History and
Background of Janmashtami
One of the most important Hindu festivals, Janmashtami
(Krishna Jayanti) is the birthday of Lord Krishna, the eighth incarnation of
Lord Vishnu who gave the vital message of Bhagwat Gita the guiding principles for every Hindu.
Across India there will be ceremonies and prayers at temples
dedicated to Krishna. The day before may consist of fasting and prayer up to
midnight,the time at which it was said that Krishna was born.
According to tradition, Krishna was born in Mathura, Uttar
Pradesh. In this region, a common custom is the performance of Krishna Lila, a
folk drama consisting of scenes from Krishna's life.
Many customs have developed in the different parts of India,
all based on stories from Krishna's life. For instance, it is said that as a
boy, Krishna loved butter and milk so much that they had to be kept out of his
reach. This story is reflected in many climbing games for children.
In Tamil Nadu, oiled poles with pots of money tied to the
top are set up. Boys dressed as Krishna then try to climb these poles to get
the money while onlookers squirt water at them.
In Maharashtra, where the festival is known as Govinda, pots
containing buttermilk are suspended high over streets. Teams of boys then form
human pyramids competing against each other to see who can break the most pots.
Krishna Many colourful legends tell of Krishna's life and he
is a prominent figure in Hindu writings.As a child he is noted for his pranks
such as the aforementioned butter stealing and images of him as a child often
show him dancing joyously and holding a ball of butter in his hands.
