Janmashtami the birth of Lord Krishna . . .
Krishna Janmashtami also known as Krishnashtami, Saatam Aatham, Gokulashtami, Ashtami Rohini, Srikrishna Jayanti, Sree Jayanti or sometimes merely as Janmashtami, is an annual commemoration of the birth of the Hindu deity Krishna, the eighth avatar of Vishnu. Janmashtami commemorates the earthly appearance of Krishna, who is described in India’s sacred writings as God Himself. One of the biggest religious festivals in the world, it is celebrated by nine hundred and thirty million people around the world.
The festival is celebrated on the eighth day (Ashtami) of the Krishna Paksha (dark fortnight) of the month of Bhadrapada which is in August–September. Lord Krishna was the 8th son of Devaki and Vasudeva. Hindus celebrate Janmashtami by fasting and staying up until midnight, the time when Krishna is believed to have been born. At midnight, devotees gather around for devotional songs, dance and exchange gifts. A midnight arati (worship ceremony) with a kirtan also done.
