India Celebrates Janmashtami Grandly
Uttar Pradesh seemed to have a grand Janmashtami with its temples being decorated for the celebration. Lord Krishna temples boast flower cut-outs and lights.
“On the occasion of Janmashtami, the dresses that have been stitched for the deity are mostly of yellow colour, because yellow colour is the favourite of Lord Krishna. All the other accessories that have been used for the god are mostly of yellow colour," said Ashish Goswami, a priest.
“For the lighting and decoration in the temples, we have kept in mind that yellow colour is used. The jewellery used for Lord Krishna is also of yellow colour; all the stones used in the jewellery are of yellow colour," he added.
The ISKCON (The International Society for Krishna Consciousness) temple in Imphal is also decorated beautifully with lights.
“We are preparing two days'' festival and on Janmashtami day, we are having students'' painting competition and a seminar on science and spirituality for peace, and Janmashtami''s special Raas leela dance. This year, we have one special item, that is ''Krishna leela''," said Ajit Prabhu, President of the ISKCON temple, Imphal.
The birth of the Lord is thus celebrated with devotion, beauty and revelry.
