The Appearance Day of Lord Krishna

LORD OF LOVE

Krishna Janmashtami celebrates of the birth of Sri Krishna, the embodiment of Prem: unconditional Divine Love. Krishna’s lilas illustrate all the different ways one can enjoy a loving relationship with the Divine. His life illuminates the bhakti path, showing humanity that through Love one can attain the Lotus Feet of the Supreme Lord.

“Krishna is Love incarnate. Now, on His birthday, ask Him to be born inside of you. Ask Him to manifest Himself inside of you.”

-Paramahamsa Vishwananda

DID YOU KNOW?

The gopis’ love was so pure. Krishna fulfilled each gopi’s desire to have Him all for themselves by multiplying Himself during the Rasa Lila. The transcendent love the gopis shared with Krishna was much greater than any human love. Gopi Love is a flawless expression of a purely devotional relationship, an example for us all to aspire to in our own lives.

WHAT TO EXPECT

This year we will be celebrating Krishna’s Appearance Day with special bhajans, and an Abhishekam to the Shaligrams. We will also be able to watch the livestream from the events with Guruji!
