gHari Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 They celebrate among others, the appearance day of Srimati Radharani and of Lord Krishna as They advented in the last yuga, usually at the end of August or early September.

Gaea Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 They celebrate among others, the appearance day of Srimati Radharani and of Lord Krishna as They advented in the last yuga, usually at the end of August or early September. funny you should say that actually - Krsna's and especially Radha's birthday don't come high on the hindu list as Diwali, Ramnavmi and Shivarathri do (at least in my experience). Certainly Radhastami is not celebrated with any big pomp by hindus, just Vaishnavas. But certainly Diwali and New Year are right at the top of the list all across India and the rest of the world (amongst hindus). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinash Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Durga Puja, Holi. These two come very high in the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be some spelling variations of Krishnashtami like Krsnastami, Krishnastami. A spelling variation of Radhashtami could be Radhastami. Also search for Janmashtami and Janmastami.
