Krishna represents the supreme personality of Godhead. This fact is stated in the Vedic scriptures and by various authorities. Lord Brahma in Brahma Samhita says, "Krishna is the supreme Godhead. He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin and he is the prime cause of all causes".
In one of India's spiritual book it has been stated that " In this material world, which is full of darkness and dangers, combined with birth and death and full of different anxieties, the only way to get out of the great entanglement is to accept loving transcendental devotional service to Lord Krishna. This is accepted by all the classes of philosophers" So in order to pay our respect to this mighty God, the festival of Janmashtmi is celebrated throughout the country.
About The Festival Janmashtami
The festival of Janmashtmi is celebrated eight days after the full moon to celebrate the birthday of Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna was born to the proud parents Devaki and Vasudeva. It was none other than Devaki's own brother Kans who imprisoned Lord Krishna's parents at the time of his birth because it was predicted that the eight child of Devaki and Vasudeva would kill Kans. However the night on which Krishna was born, there was severe storm and somehow Vasudeva managed to take Lord Krishna to Gokul, to give him under the care of Yashodha and Nand.
