What you will learn

According to Bhagavad Gita, that whenever there will be the predominance of evil and decline of dharma, Lord Krishna will reincarnate to destroy evil and to save the good. The main significance of Krishna Janmashtami is to encourage goodwill. It is also a celebration of togetherness. The holy occasion brings people together, signifying unity and faith.

Lord Krishna is also known as Yogeshwar as he is the exponent of Bhagavad Gita, which is a Yogashastra. This day is a day to pay respects to that Supreme Being.

Who this is for:

Anyone who wants to worship and meditate on the Supreme Being
Anyone who wants to connect with their Inner Self through the Bhajan and Meditation

Requirements of the workshop:

Ideally, everyone should do fruit fasting/ consume very light satvic food the whole day and after the workshop will eat some light food.
