New Delhi : Krishna Janmashtami, or simply Janmashtami, marks the celebration of the birth of Lord Krishna, a Lord Vishnu — one of three of the holy Hindu trinity — incarnate and one of his most significant and revered avatars. In 2021, the world celebrates Krishna Janmashtami on August 30 (Monday).

According to Indian mythology, Lord Krishna was the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu, who was born in the Dvapara Yuga. For Indians and specially Hindu community, the day is considered very auspicious. 

The scriptures say that Lord Krishna was born at midnight, inside a prison cell in Mathura where his parents Devaki and Vasudeva were lodged. He was then surreptitiously taken to a town near Mathura, owing to a threat to his life, where he grew up with foster parents Nanda and Yashoda, and siblings Balarama and Subhadra.

Shri Krishna's life is a magical tale that can be read in many books. Today, on the occasion of the Blue God’s birth, take a moment to thank him for everything positive that you have in your life, and pray for forgiveness for any of your misdoings.

To help you spread the good wishes, here are some whatsapp messages, photos and wishes you can send to your loved one to celebrate Krishna Janmashtami.

I hope that you are showered with love, peace and prosperity this Janmashtami.

Wishing you and your family an auspicious Janmashtami!
