Govardhana puja

Govardhana puja

Govardhana Puja is a sacred festival commemorating Lord Krishna’s lifting of Govardhana Hill to protect the residents of Vrindavan from torrential rains. Devotees honor this divine pastime by offering abundant vegetarian preparations, decorating the Deities, and performing Govardhana worship with devotion.

The festival teaches surrender, gratitude, and faith in Krishna as the ultimate protector. By celebrating Govardhana Puja, devotees remember the importance of simple living, devotion to Krishna, and taking shelter of the Lord in all circumstances of life.
