LORD KRISHNA AND HIS BIRTHDAY
Janmastami is the yearly observance of Krishna’s appearance on earth. It is one of the world’s most widely observed spiritual festivals. Krishna’s “birth,” janma, occurred at midnight on ashtami, the eighth day after the full moon in the Vedic calendar.
Krishna’s appearance is significant on many levels, and is something of a paradox. He’s the beginningless Supreme Person, eternally existing everywhere at all times. He isn’t “born” like we’re are—forced by karma into a succession of material bodies. Krishna appears in His same permanent, spiritual form whenever and wherever He likes.When He does appear, He chooses His devotees to play the roles of His father and mother. He Himself plays the role of their child, and acts like a human being, while also performing superhuman activities that are impossible for anyone else to imitate.

On Janmastami day, arrive to the temple on time for your time slot, have darshan, and receive a box of prasad to take home with you.
Everyone must wear a mask and sanitize hands upon entry. We will take temperature and request parties (groups or individuals) to remain in physical distance from other parties.
Why are we charging $10 for darshan & prasad?
The value of darshan of the Lord is priceless and is not to be sold or charged money for.
Normally, Janmastami feast is free and everyone offers a donation as reciprocation.
We are requesting $10 for darshan & prasad to solidify your commitment to show up at your registered time-slot, to cover the costs of to-go packages for prasad, and to reduce the handling of cash in-person on site.
