Krishna Janmashtami is a day that heralds the birth of God Shri Krishna who is worshipped in the Hindu Religion as an incarnation of the almighty God Vishnu!
Shri Krishna is the eight avatar or incarnation of God Vishnu.
Shri Krishna appeared as the baby of Devaki and Vasudeva inside a prison cell in the midnight of the eight day ( Ashtami) of the dark fortnight in Bhadrapada.
The baby God is Bal Gopal as we know him in the most adorable form
of a chubby cute baby. He is very naughty and loves to eat makhan (milk cream).
Krishna Janmashtami is not merely the birth of a God form. This celebration carry deep spiritual meaning. It represents the divine awakening of the human consciousness.
The birth of Krishna had the purpose of victory of good over evil. Krishna restored righteousness and wisdom by destroying the evil power of King Kangsa who was like an embodiment of all bad energies.
Bad energies like anger ,jealousy, greed, hatred etc need to be destroyed. Krishna embodies the power of truth, love and wisdom.
Krishna Janmashtami always guides us as a reminder of this truth that Krishna is the ultimate ruler or God and our consciousness must always keep faith in Krishna so that no evil power may cause any harm.
Krishna is the Supreme Lord who pervades all existence. He is the ultimate reality and we can touch his divine blessings, or be considered deserving for the same only with love and righteousness in our hearts.
Only with Krishna in our heart , no evil can touch us and we can feel the truth in life. Krishna is the truth. Krishna is love.
Om Harey Krishna Om 🕉 🙏
