On the eighth night of the dark fortnight (Ashtami) in the month of Bhadrapada, Devaki gave birth to Krishna, the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu.

Miraculously:

  • The prison guards fell asleep.
  • Vasudeva’s chains broke.
  • The prison doors opened on their own.

this year 2025, the shri Krishna Janmashtami celebrated on 16/8/25. it was a divine day. it was a very precious day in Hinduism.

Vasudeva carried baby Krishna in a basket across the flooded Yamuna River during a storm.

  • The serpent deity Adishesha shielded Krishna with his hood.
  • The river parted to allow safe passage.

On the other side, in Gokul, Yashoda and Nanda had just given birth to a baby girl (believed to be a form of Goddess Durga).

  • Vasudeva exchanged Krishna with the girl and returned to the prison.
  • When Kamsa tried to kill the girl, she transformed into Durga and warned him that his destroyer was already born.

Then the shri Krishna ‘s legacy continues in Gokul…
