Help us to reach GOVARDHAN PUJA: Full Rituals | Bajre Ka Malida or Bajra Churma Laddu | | E162 In this visit to Bharatpur, we also got to witness the Govardhan Puja. People all over the Braj region – in Mathura, Vrindavan, Agra, Bharatpur and surrounding areas – perform Govardhan Puja with great enthusiasm and devotion. The puranas say that cowherds who lived close to Govardhan mountain used to appease Lord Indra, the king of gods, by worshipping him. However, Lord Krishna had a different point of view. According to him, Govardhan mountain should have been worshipped as it provided livelihood to the villagers. He said the trees give fresh air and fodder for the cattle. This irked Indra and he lashed down rain and storm to punish the villagers. Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain on his little finger and provided shelter to his people and their livestock. For seven days and seven nights, Indra brought rain and storm and Lord Krishna continued to hold the mountain over their heads on his little finger. On the eighth day, Indra accepted defeat. Devotees identify Govardhan and Lord Krishna as one and the same, their protector. And they celebrate Govardhan Puja in honour of Lord Krishna. The puja is celebrated by observing quite a few rituals that are a part of the festivity. One of the most important rituals is to create an effigy of Govardhan mountain with cow dung. The other important thing is Annakut, that is a mountain of food that includes various dishes, which is served as bhoga.
