Guest guest Posted August 30, 2002 Report Share Posted August 30, 2002 Dear Friends Janmashtami Greetings As the embodiment of love, he charmed the gopis with his alluring smile and the melody of his flute. As the manifestation of supreme wisdom he imparted the philosophies of Bhagwad to Arjuna on the war front. On this auspicious day we celebrate the birth anniversary of Lord Krishna. Adored by the Gopis, revered by the devotees and feared by the enemies, Lord Krishna took birth on this day to rid this world of the evildoers. Janmashtami, Gokulashtami, Krishna Jayanti or Sri Janyanti, this festival is known by many names. The festival is celebrated with equal fervor in all parts of the country. But the city of Krishna's birth, Mathura, takes precedence over the other cities in making the festival even more spectacular. http://www.blessingsonthenet.com/temple/pics/janmashtamicard5.jpg http://www.blessingsonthenet.com/temple/titledesch.asp? code=F0795&serialno=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
