About this event
Happy New Year – Govardhan Puja – Go Puja – Go Krda The tenth Canto of Srimad-Bhagavatam relates many of Krishna’s pastimes. Of these, “The Lifting of Govardhan Hill” is one of our most important. It tells the story of how Krishna lifted Govardhan Hill in Vrindavan for seven days and seven nights, balancing it on the tip of his small finger and thus providing a huge umbrella under which all the residents and animals of Vrindavan could find shelter from the devastating rainstorm sent by Lord Indra (god of rain and king of heaven) upon their village. When Lord Indra realized that only the Supreme Lord could defeat him in such a mystical way, he surrendered to Krishna. Traditionally, this festival is celebrated by cooking large amounts of food offerings for the Deities. It is called Anna (grains) Kuta (mountain) and takes place on the day after Diwali. Simply called “Mountains of Food Festival” – we encourage everyone to prepare bhoga and bring before 6 PM. All bhogas are prepared without garlic, onion, mushroom, chocolate by using clean containers since these items are offered on the altar.
