Sri Krishna Jayanti
             (Janmashtami)

        August 25, 2016

The divine appearance of Sri Krishna is celebrated on this day. Sri Krishna appeared on the eighth day of the dark fortnight in the month of Shravana Masam as the eighth son of Devaki and Vasudeva.  The Lord incarnated to teach the path of love.

Yada yada hi dharmasya glanirbhavati bharata
Abhythanamadharmasya tadatmanam srijamyaham

Paritranaya sadhunang vinashay cha dushkritam
Dharmasangsthapanarthay sambhabami yuge yug
                                                                  - Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4, Verse 7-8

Whenever there is decay of righteousness, O Bharata,
And there is exaltation of unrighteousness, then I Myself come forth;

For the protection of the good, for the destruction of evil-doers, 
For the sake of firmly establishing righteousness, I am born from age to age

(Translation: Whenever virtue subsides and wickedness prevails, I manifest Myself. To establish virtue, to destroy evil, to save the good I come from Yuga (age) to Yuga)

Devotees all over the world celebrate this festival to express their desire to serve the Lord and to glorify Him. 

Sri Krishna signifies Ananda (divine bliss). The celebration of Sri Krishna Jayanti is considered the celebration of the manifestation of divine bliss
.

Read Amma's special new message of guidance and blessings for this divine celebration.
