The celebration of Krishna Janmashtami is an important festival in the Vaishnavism tradition of Hinduism and is celebrated over the span of two days. The first day of celebration, called Janmashtami, is focused on celebrating the birth of Lord Krishna at midnight. To do this, there are special events organised in local Shri Krishna temples, where the idol of a baby Krishna is kept on a swing set and swayed at midnight. People often sing aartis and songs praising Lord Krishna on this day. Lord Krishna is believed to have been born at midnight. The Krishna Janmashtami Puja is therefore conducted at this time with night vigils and prayers organised.
People also abstain from eating anything and offer their prayers to Lord Krishna on the occasion of Krishna Janmashtami.

The day following the Janmashtami celebrations is marked as Dahi Handi. This is a particularly popular celebration in Maharashtra and is focused on celebrating the fun and naughty sides of a young Lord Krishna. People across the state organise a Dahi Handi competition where groups form a human pyramid to try and break an earthen pot filled with makhan or butter. The celebration aims to reminisce about the various folklore about Lord Krishna stealing butter from his localities as a child, because of his affinity to the delicacy. We hope that the celebration of Krishna Janmashtami 2024 fills your life with love, light and happiness.
