The celebrations include ecstatic singing and dancing, theatrical performances, dance, children’s shows and honouring the most delicious of prasadam dishes and delicacies prepared especially for the occasion. The Deities were dressed in special outfits, the altar and temple room elaborately decorated with fresh fragrant flowers.
Many people fasted and stayed up until midnight Maha Arati and at the stroke of midnight, devotees gathered around for devotional songs, to welcome the birth of the unborn which was followed by breaking the fast.Every year the Janmashtami Festival of Lord Krishna is celebrated with pomp and show, zeal and enthusiasm in a spiritually charged atmosphere!
