Krishnashtami Puja
The child Krishna form attracts people more though he is fondly addressed with the epithets like Divya Mangala Vighraha Jagadanandha karaka, Jagannataka Suthradhari, Radhamanasa chora and Satyavidehya. The picture of Balakrishna who holds butter in one hand in the crawling posture on the floor with tikinling anklets mesmerizes the viewers. Scholars say that it would be ideal to worship child Krishna form on Krishnashtami day.
It is for this reason Balaskrishna’s foot marks decorated before every door step. The devotees undertake fasting all the day and put the idol of child Krishna sucking milk from his mother Devaki or Vatapatra Sai in a cradle and worship him in the midnight by which time he was born and traditionally taken out in a procession. The child god is very much fond of his mother. Although mischievous. he abides by his mother’s word. He volunteered to be tied to a roller by his mother in spite of his being a supreme person and extraordinarily strong.
Similarly the Krishnashtami worship removes all kinds of troubles in the house. Gopala Krishna blesses those with children who need them. if Radha and Madhava and Rukmini and Krishna are worshipped on Krishnashtami couples become intimate. If Sri Krishna Jayanthi is under- taken as vratam with devotion and attention it offers the result equal to the donation of cow according to Brahmanda purana, it gives the result of donation of gold. Krishnashtami is extolled as the remover of sins of Kaliyuga and giver of virtues.
