Krishna Janmashtami 2022: Check out messages, quotes to celebrate the occasion

Krishna Janmashtami for 2022 is here, and the country is already in the festive mood. Krishna Janmashtami is being celebrated for two days this year. Let us get to know about the festival in detail.

What is Janmashtami?

Krishna Janmashtami is observed every year as the birth anniversary of Lord Krishna. As per the Hindu calendar, the Janmashtami is marked on the 8th day of the dark fortnight in the month of Bhadrapada.


The Bhadrapada month usually falls between July and August, though there’s confusion this year about the exact date. While some have said that the Krishna Janmashtami 2022 will be celebrated on Thursday, August 18, others say that it will fall on Friday, August 19.

However, as per Drik Panchang, the Ashtami Tithi will begin at 9:20 pm on Thursday and end at 10:59 pm on Friday. While some decorate the idols of Lord Krishna and offer prayers, many devotees also keep a fast during the Tithi.





Best Wishes for Krishna Janmashtami:
“May Lord Krishna bless you and your family with Health, Wealth, Love, and Happiness. Happy Janmashtami!”

“May the festival of Janmashtami bring new hope, joy, happiness, and prosperity for you and your loved one. Happy Krishna Janmashtami!”

“May Lord Krishna Bless You with Health and Wealth this Janmashtami!”


Best Quotes by Lord Krishna:

“Happiness is a state of mind that has nothing to do with the external world.”

“Set your heart upon work but never its reward.”

“If you don’t fight for what you want, don’t cry for what you lost.”

Krishna devotees, particularly in Maharashtra, celebrate Janmashtami by organising Dahi Handi competition. Pots of curd are hung on multi-storey heights, and young men gather and form human pyramids to break the pot, the way a young lord Krishna would do during his childhood.
