There is one birthday, that
my remembrance is quite fond of. A birthday unlike any other. A holy birthday.
A pious birthday. A mythical birthday. I believe, Lord Krishna have always
found his way into the hearts of young and old alike. The children like his
early escapades, the elders are fond of his verses that are immortally compiled
into the holy Gita.
It is his birthday, that we
celebrate on the occasion of Janmashtami. It is Janmashtami and its processions
that I very well remember, and owing to all that I can reminiscence, I tend to
narrate, what transpired in my household during this very occasion. For ordering
or making the celebration more enjoyable go to online
cake delivery in noida sector 76.
The day of Janmashtami began
with cleansing. Cleaning of the house was the first task that was allotted to
us children. Scrub the floors so that they appear to wear a shine, dust all the
objects so that they are all free of even a speck of dust. With that complete,
clean yourself. After taking long baths and evolving as a whole new individual,
one had to cleanse your soul. Since it was Lord Krishna’s birthday, one had to
pray to him, sort of wish him, and promise him to free themselves of all
ill-will. All this while, my mother was busy in the kitchen. That meant we were
going to be treated with mouth-watering food throughout the day.
