Krishna Janmashtami will be celebrated on August 15 this year. The festival is observed annually on the Ashtami Tithi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Shraavana of Bhadrapad.
Here is a look at the shubh muhurat, city wise timings, puja samagri, and important rituals for you to mark Lord Krishna’s 5251st birthday.
Devotees observe a fast for the blessings of Lord Krishna on Janmashtami. You can keep a nirjala vrat (one cannot eat or drink water until midnight) or a phalahar fast (one can only eat fruits and drink milk and water). The fast is usually broken at midnight. Further, one wears traditional clothes, bathes and decorates Lord Krishna’s idols in new clothes and jewellery. Devotees seek blessings for the well-being of their families. One should also chant mantras and bhajans and recite the Bhagavad Gita or Krishna Leela.
