Regarding Janmashtami, Krishna
In India, people celebrate Lord Krishna’s birthday, Janmashtami, often referred to as Krishna Janmashtami, during the monsoon month with great zeal and fervor. According to the Hindu calendar, this significant occasion occurs on Ashtami, the eighth day of Krishna Paksh, or the dark fortnight of the month of Bhadon. The exact origin of this festivity is unknown! This celebration may have originated in ancient times and become ingrained in our society. In fact, there are a number of myths and legendary tales surrounding Janmashtami’s birth.

The most widely held belief among all of them is that Lord Krishna is Lord Vishnu’s eighth incarnation. The Mahabharata has taught us all that the birth of The demon Kansa, who also happens to be Lord Krishna’s maternal uncle, was killed. It is stated that Lord Vishnu appears to deliver humanity from the grasp of demons and thugs whenever there is an imbalance in the cosmos with regard to peace and prosperity.
