Krishna Janmashtami

Popularly known as Krishna Jayanti:

Janmashtami festival called Krishna Jayanti is in August-September every year. Lord Krishna was born on a rainy and stormy night. Apparently, Lord Varun, God of rain, welcomed the Lord himself. Still this trend continues since Janmashtami always falls during the peak of the rainy season in India.

Reason for Birth of Lord Krishna:

According to the Puranas, Krishna was the eighth incarnations of Lord Vishnu. He took birth to kill the evil king Kansa who was tormenting the people. Thus, Krishna freed the people of Mathura and other nearby towns. They were saved from Kansa’s evil clutches. Kansa was Krishna’s maternal uncle. Krishna was the eighth child of Devki, his mother, and Vasudev, his father.
