Janmashtami,
Today, I am going to share the celebration of Janmashtami festival at my home
and about Shri Krishna ji. This year we celebrated Janmashtami on Monday, August
30, 2021. Every year, we celebrated this
festival in the month of August. On the auspicious occasion birth of Shri Krishna,
we celebrated this festival in India. On this day, Krishna idol is decorated
with flowers and new clothes.
I, also do the same at m home. I prepare
sweets, Panjari Prasad, for the Bhog of Krishna ji. At 12 midnight, I with my
family members offer parsad to Kanha ji. First we do Aarti then offer the Bhog which we
prepare in the day. Many people keep
fast on this day and at the time of birth they open their fast with the bhog.

his son. Kanhaji was born and bought up in the Gokul. We also called him with
several names, Vasudev, Kanha, Laddu Gopal, Kanhiya, Makhan Chor etc. He loves to eat Makhan. Krishna ji, was very
famous god. He was very powerful. He
was fond of eating Makhan, because of this he steal Makhan from his mother's
Kitchen. He was the beloved of Radha. He

It is also celebrated in Maharashtra in unique
way- Dahi Handi. This ritual takes place a day after Janmashtami and is very
popular among kids and youth. They
strung up the pots high supported by wires and poles. Boys form a human pyramid to reach the
pot. The topmost boy break the pot and
released the Prasad. The Prasad are considered holy and they feel blessed. The
women and neighbors cheer , dance , sing and celebrated the festival.
