Janmashtami 2023: Wishes, quotes, messages, images to celebrate auspicious festival of Lord Krishna

Happy Janmashtami 2023: Janmashtami, also known as Krishna Janmashtami or Gokulashtami, is a Hindu festival which is celebrated annually to mark the birth of Lord Krishna, the God who is the embodiment of playfulness and innocence.

As per the Hindu calendar, Lord Krishna, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, was born on the eighth day of the Hindu month of 'Bhadra'. The day mostly falls in the months of August or September in the Gregorian calendar.

Lord Krishna's teachings, particularly those found in the Bhagavad Gita, are highly revered in Hindu philosophy. The Bhagavad Gita is a sacred text that contains a conversation between Lord Krishna and the warrior Arjuna. It imparts spiritual wisdom, guidance on duty, and the path to self-realization. Janmashtami serves as a reminder of these profound teachings.

The festival of Janmashtami is celebrated by offering prayers to Lord Krishna, with beautifully decorated swings, dance and music performances, and the 'Dahi-Handi' competition.
