Mathura: On the occasion of Shri Krishna Janmashtami, the festival of the birth anniversary of Lord Shri Krishna, there was gaiety in Uttar Pradesh on Monday. Here at midnight of Ashtami of Shukla Paksha of Bhadrapada, Dhol and Mridang were seen dancing to music. Here it was as if Vedas was reciting mantras. If there was a conch shell, then the buds, cows, creepers of Braj were known and only one voice came from millions of people - 'Jai Kanhaiya Lal ki, Jai Kanhaiya Lal ki...'

Let me tell you that it was not a night in Mathura Brajbhoomi last Monday. In the middle of the night, the adorable ring of the masses was born. Yes, Kanha was anointed at the birthplace at 12 o'clock last Monday night amid the sound of conch-hour and Vedic mantras, and seeing all this, the whole Vaikuntha was filled with joy. Let me tell all of you that under the direction of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the state government broke the shackles of Monday night curfew restrictions to celebrate Shri Krishna Janmashtami with great fanfare. The atmosphere everywhere looked black. Well, this time the birth anniversary was a wonderful coincidence. Tell you that when Kanhaiya was born in the prison of Kansa in Dwapar, then there was Jayanti and Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga.

This time too, the same yoga was formed and the birth of Kanha blessed the particles of Braj. Tell you that Lala was anointed with the water of Ganga-Yamuna in Mathura. Let me tell you that last Monday was the 5248th birth anniversary of Liladhar Lord Krishna and the joys of Lala's arrival were visible in every house of Braj since morning.
