CHICAGO: The Gujarati Community of St. Louis celebrated Krishna Janmashtami, appearance day of Lord Krishna, at Mahatma Gandhi Center, St Louis with great pomp, devotion and enthusiasm on September 1.
The program started with a welcome address by Madhukar Bhakta and was followed by bhajans by devotees, Aarti and Jhoola Darshan. Delicious Gujarati food was served to all devotees. Over 300 Gujarati members attended this event.
Janmashtami is deemed most auspicious occasion by Krishna devotees and Vaishnavas when the Lord descended about five thousand years ago to get rid of evil, protect his devotees and re-establish the religious system.
Krishna, which means all attractive, is the most opulent Supreme Person who excels in possession of beauty, strength, intelligence, fame, riches and renunciation.
