Sri Krishna Janmashtami, the divine appearance day of Lord Krishna, is one of the most celebrated and spiritually uplifting festivals across the globe. At ISKCON temples, this occasion is not just a celebration — it is a soulful journey into the transcendental pastimes of Lord Krishna. The ISKCON Janmashtami celebration at ISKCON Gurugram is a perfect blend of devotion, culture, and spiritual enlightenment, drawing thousands of devotees every year.
Why We Celebrate Janmashtami
Janmashtami marks the divine appearance of Lord Sri Krishna over 5,000 years ago in Mathura. The Supreme Lord descends to protect the righteous, annihilate the wicked, and re-establish dharma. His teachings in the Bhagavad-gita continue to guide humanity even today.
This day is a reminder of the Lord’s unconditional love for His devotees and His eternal promise — “Whenever and wherever there is a decline in dharma, I appear to protect My devotees.”
