krishna janmashtami 2024

Sri Krishna Janmashtami in ISKCON Bangalore is celebrated with great fervour and enthusiasm. The preparations begin many months before the festival. The temple will be adorned with colourful flowers and festoons, radiating a festive aura of vibrancy and celebration. The utsavar Deities of Sri Krishna, along with His consorts, are anointed with fragrant oils and given ceremonial abhisheka with auspicious items like milk, yoghurt, ghee, honey, sweet water and fresh juices. They are then smeared with turmeric paste and bathed in Ganges water. Varieties of flowers are showered until the Deities are submerged in a soft bed of flowers. An elaborate abhisheka to Sri Sri Radha Krishnachandra will be performed at 9 PM on 26 Aug 2024. We invite you to visit the temple to witness this sublime event on this most auspicious day and be blessed.
