This year Janmashtami is being celebrated in some places on the 18th and in some places on the 19th of August. Along with Mathura, Vrindavan, and Dwarka, ISKCON will be celebrated on the 19th only in temples. The mathematics of astrologers is also telling the best on 19th, so in most places in North India, Krishna Janmotsav will be celebrated on 19th August. On this day 8 auspicious yogas are being formed consisting of Tithi, Vaar, Nakshatra, and planets. According to astrologers, this is happening after 400 years.
Why Celebrate 19
This time there is confusion about Janmashtami because the Ashtami date will not stay for the whole day on 18th August, but will start from around 9.30 in the night, but will remain from sunrise to night on 19th. Therefore, according to the tradition of Udaya Tithi, most of the temples will celebrate on the 19th.
Experts say that the help of texts named Dharma Sindhu and Niyan Sindhu is taken to decide the date of fasts and festivals. In both these texts, it has been said for Janmashtami that it is more auspicious to celebrate this festival on the day when Ashtami Tithi falls at sunrise. It is also said that the day after the Smarta and Shaiva celebrate Janmashtami, the householder and Vaishnava sect celebrates this festival. So it is better to celebrate this festival on the 19th.
5249th birth anniversary of Shri Krishna
The astrologer of Puri, Dr. Ganesh Mishra tells that Shri Krishna was born on Ashtami Tithi in the eighth Muhurta of the night. That's why Krishna's birth anniversary begins at midnight. This Muhurta will be from 12.05 to 12.45 this time. Due to the position of the stars, this time the festival has become very special. According to the texts available from the scholars of Banaras, Puri, and Tirupati, this is the 5249th birth anniversary of Lord Krishna.
