Sri Krishna Janmashtami Vrata

Many devotees have asked us in the last several years: How can we observe Sri Kṛṣṇa Janmashtami at our homes? Is there a standard process? Can women observe this? Can children observe this? Can we have a simple method to practice this?

Based on the teachings of Srila Prabhupada, the founder-acharya of International Society for Kṛṣṇa Consciousness as given in his various books like Bhagavad Gita, Bhagavatam and Sri Chaitanya Charitamrita, we have prepared this manual to address the above needs. We have also consulted scholars and experienced devotees who have practiced the principles of Kṛṣṇa bhakti in their lives for a long number of years. We are happy to present this short manual of Sri Kṛṣṇa Janmashtami Vrata, in the documents below. The documents also contain links to the videos by which you can practically learn the various items of Janmashtami Vrata.
