Krishna is a supreme God and worshipped as the eighth incarnation of the god Vishnu. He is the god of compassion, kindness, and love. He rules over the destiny of lovers. Krishnas birth celebrated as Krishna Janmashtami.

Krishna is usually described with a flute in his hand and having a peacock feather on the forehead. He is also known as Gopala “Protector of the Go”, which means “Soul” or “the cows”. The name of Lord Krishnas bow was Sarang and the name of the main weapon was Sudarshan. He could work in all the three forms Cosmic, Divyastra and Devastra.

His equal destroyers were only two weapons and were Pashupatastra (पाशुपतास्त्र) – possessed by Shiva, Krishna, and Arjuna and Prasvapastra (प्रस्वपास्त्र) – possessed by Shiva, Vasugan, Bhishma and Krishna. Krishna is worshiped to receive blessings of pure love, joy, and happiness in life. Navgraha According to Vedic astrology, all the nine planets in your horoscope (Kundali) affect the course of life i.e. marriage, career, health, finances, etc. The movement of these planets in the horoscope forms yogas or doshas (negative influences).

Due to these Navagraha doshas, people face various obstacles & hindrances in their life. In order to minimize and negate the malefic doshas or malefic influence of these planets, we perform Navagraha Puja. While performing the Navagraha puja, the chanting of the mantra for all the nine planets which are Ketu, Venus, Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn & Mercury is necessary.

Actually chanting of these mantras is necessary to appease the Navagrahas. This process is also called Graha Shanti. While describing the significance of worshipping Navgrahas or nine planets, God Vishnu says to Rudra that people who worship the Navgraha (nine planets) with appropriate rituals attains all the four Purusharth (objectives of life) which are Dharma (religion), Artha (materialistic abundance), Kaam (fulfillment of desires) and Moksha (salvation).

Navgrah Mantra:

Om Ghrini Suryaye Namah, Om Aim Kleem Somaye Namah, Om Hoom Shreem Mangalaya Namah, Om Braam Breem Braum Sah Budhaye Namah, Om Gram Greem Graum Sah Guruve Namah, Om Draam Dreem Droum Sah Shukraye Namah, Om Sham Shanaischaryaye Namah, Om Raam Rahve Namah, Om Hreem Ketave Namah, Om Navgarihaya Namah Gauri Mata

Gauri Mantra:

Om Sarva Mangala Mangalye Shive Sarvatha Sadhike Sharanye Tryambake Gauri Narayani Namo-stute.

Gauri is also known as Goddess Parvati and she is the goddess of fertility, love, beauty, marriage, children, and devotion. Gauri being the daughter of Daksh is the mother of the mountains.

WHEN IS JANMASHTAMI IN 2023? | HISTORY, IMPORTANCE & PUJA VIDHI

Reading Time- 7 Mins

Janmashtami, one of the most celebrated Hindu festivals, marks the birth of Lord Krishna, the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu. With its roots in ancient Indian mythology and rich cultural significance, Janmashtami is observed with great fervor and devotion across the country. Krishna devotees all over the world are confused as to when the actual celebration of the festival is. Is the auspicious day falling on the 6th or 7th of September? Don’t worry, we are here to clear up your confusion:

Janmashtami falls on the eighth day of the Bhadrapada month and is also known as Gokulashtami. In 2023, this auspicious festival will be celebrated on September 7th (Thursday) and is anticipated to be a joyous occasion for millions of devotees.

Historical and Mythological Significance:

At the core of Krishna's devotion lies an admiration for his multifaceted persona. Lord Krishna is not just a deity but a reservoir of virtues that encompass the realms of love, wisdom, playfulness, courage, and compassion. It is this multi-dimensional nature that captures the hearts of his followers, drawing them into a world of unconditional love and unwavering faith.

The story of Janmashtami revolves around the divine life of Lord Krishna, born in Mathura to Devaki and Vasudeva. Due to a prophecy that he would be slain by his maternal uncle, the evil King Kansa, Krishna was secretly transported to Gokul and raised by his foster parents, Yashoda and Nanda. The festival not only celebrates his birth but also commemorates his heroic deeds, teachings, and divine love.

Relevance in Modern Times:

The teachings of Lord Krishna, as elucidated in the Bhagavad Gita, continue to resonate with people across generations. His philosophy of duty, righteousness, and detachment serves as a guiding light in navigating the complexities of life. Janmashtami serves as an annual reminder of these timeless teachings, encouraging devotees to strive for spiritual growth and self-realization.

The supreme God's devotion to dharma (righteousness) is another cherished aspect of his character. Through his own life experiences, Krishna showcases that upholding dharma requires courage, integrity, and a deep understanding of the bigger cosmic picture. His teachings emphasize the importance of fighting for justice and truth, even in the face of adversity.

Celebrations and Rituals:

Janmashtami is celebrated with immense enthusiasm and devotion. The festivities commence with elaborate preparations, including decorating homes and temples with flowers and colorful rangoli. Devotees fast throughout the day, breaking it only at midnight when Lord Krishna is believed to have been born. The main rituals include:

Krishna Jhula Decoration: A swing (jhula) is adorned with flowers and decorations, symbolizing the cradle in which the infant Krishna was rocked.

Singing Bhajans and Kirtans: Devotees gather in temples to sing devotional songs (bhajans) and engage in kirtans (spiritual chants) that recount the life and deeds of Lord Krishna.

Midnight Abhishek: The highlight of Janmashtami is the midnight Abhishek (ritual bath) performed with milk, curd, ghee, honey, and water. This is followed by the ceremonial placing of the idol in the cradle amidst the chanting of mantras.

Puja Procedure:

Performing the Janmashtami puja at home can be a deeply spiritual experience. Here's a simplified puja procedure:

Cleanse: Begin by purifying yourself through a bath and wearing clean clothes.

Idol Preparation: Set up an idol or picture of Lord Krishna on an altar, adorned with flowers and decorations.

Offerings: Offer fruits, sweets, and other vegetarian delicacies to Lord Krishna.

Aarti: Light a ghee lamp and perform an aarti (circular movement of the lamp) while singing devotional songs.

Chanting: Recite Krishna mantras or the Hare Krishna Mahamantra to invoke the divine energy.

Midnight Celebration: Stay awake until midnight, meditating or engaging in devotional activities. At midnight, perform the abhishek and offer prayers.

Distribution of Prasad: Share the blessed Prasad with family and friends.

Janmashtami, beyond being a celebration of Lord Krishna's birth, serves as a platform for spiritual growth, cultural unity, and devotion. It teaches us the importance of righteousness, love, and selfless action, making it more than just a religious event. As 2023's Janmashtami approaches, let us embrace the festival's teachings and celebrate with reverence and joy, connecting with the divine essence that resides within us all.

The essence of Janmashtami extends beyond mere ritualistic celebrations. It is a reminder to embrace Krishna's teachings in everyday life, to love unconditionally, to fulfill duties with dedication, and to rise above the challenges with unwavering faith. Krishna's life is a mirror reflecting the journey of every individual seeking truth, purpose, and a deeper understanding of existence.

What Are the Rituals and Practices for Worshiping Vishnu?

Lord Vishnu, revered as the preserver and protector of the universe in Hinduism, is worshipped through various rituals and practices that hold deep spiritual significance. Daily worship, or "puja," forms the cornerstone of these devotional practices. Devotees typically perform these rituals at home using a lord Vishnu brass idol as the focal point.

The worship begins with Abhishekam (bathing the idol), where water, milk, and other sacred substances are poured over the Vishnu brass idol to symbolize the cleansing of the soul. This is followed by Alankaram (decoration), adorning the idol with fresh flowers and new clothes, often personalized with favorite accessories.

Naivedyam (offering food) is a vital part of the ritual, where devotees offer fruits, sweets, and traditional dishes to Vishnu. The ritual concludes with Aarti (waving of lights), symbolizing the dispelling of darkness and the presence of divine light.

Chanting mantras like "Om Namo Narayanaya" and reading sacred texts such as the Bhagavad Gita deepen the spiritual connection. During festivals like Vaikuntha Ekadashi and Janmashtami, these practices are performed more elaborately, enhancing the spiritual ambiance. Incorporating a lord Vishnu brass statue into these rituals fosters a sense of spiritual growth and divine protection.

Is 2 Day trip Enough to Explore Mathura and Vrindavan?

A 2-day visit to Mathura and Vrindavan can be quite satisfying, allowing you to see many of the main sights but how deeply you experience everything depends on your pace and interests. Here is what you can expect during a 2-day trip.

Main Sights: In two days you can comfortably visit the main temples and ghats in both cities like the Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple in Mathura and the Banke Bihari Temple in Vrindavan. The close distance between these cities makes it easy to travel between them.

Cultural Insight: Two days is usually enough to get a feel for the spiritual atmosphere and take part in daily rituals, like morning and evening aartis which are a big part of the experience.

Relaxation Time: While you can see most of the popular places, a 2-day trip might feel a bit hurried if you want to take your time and really enjoy each temple and historic site. Spending more time might be better if you are interested in exploring local markets.

Festival Periods: If you plan to visit during big festivals such as Holi or Janmashtami you might find that two days are not enough because of the large number of people and longer waiting times at temples. Adding extra days can give you more freedom during these busy times.

Overall a 2-day visit usually provides a good introduction but staying longer lets you enjoy a more in depth and relaxed exploration of the spiritual culture in Mathura and Vrindavan.

Consider booking a Mathura Vrindavan Tour Packages for a complete guided tour and explore this beautiful city with your family at your own pace. Booking tour packages also make your journey worry free and smooth.
