Janmashtami is the birthday of Lord Krishna, the eighth avatar (incarnation) of Lord Maha Vishnu. Lord Krishna was born to Devaki and Vasudeva at midnight in Rohini Nakshatra on Shravana Bahula Ashtami. On Janmashtami, devotees spend the day immersed in Sri Krishna's glory by reading, reciting and singing His divine leela. Children are adorned as Lord Krishna and Radhika, his spiritual beloved. Mothers revel in recollecting the eternal
motherly love of Yasoda, who was Krishna's adoptive mother. One of the main rituals is the breaking of Dahi Handi, which is also known as Utti. This ceremony replicates Krishna's
love for milk and butter.
