When I was back home in India who live with their parents, surrounded by hundreds of cousins, second and third loads we celebrate the festivals. Sometimes I would even joke with my mother, who seems to be a Hindu religious festival day is unique. Mom and respond immediately: "Yes, and the gift of life, and this also in the Karma Bhoomi, that is Bharat alias India is in fact reason enough to celebrate each day we lived there." Perhaps this is why most Hindus in America, including me, are hardly aware of the exact dates of the many festivals that we have celebrated if we were in our home. Festivals missed even remember the dates in the last month include Varamaha Lakshmi Puja, Upakarma, Raksha Bandhan, etc. It is the same story every year, when he realized that was absent from the festival, and I make a note of the mental and tell myself that I should not forget that in the following year. But as they say history is repeating.
Fortunately this year I signed up to be blind on the mailing list of many social organizations, religious and secular set up by the Hindu people of India. Recently I got a mail from Kripalu Yog Jagadguru for Krishna Janmashtami celebrations are in the organization of Plano, Texas for the benefit of all Hindus in the region. The celebrations take place on August 29, two days in 2010 (before the actual festival due to a holiday weekend) at the beginning of a decent Montessori School, on the road to Alma in Plano, Texas.
This is the day when Lord Krishna embodies another senior Hindu god Vishnu. Lord Krishna is very sacred by more than a billion Hindus all over the world. There are many prayers the Lord Krishna Bank, who are members of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCon).
I will be in action over the weekend is definitely my last participation in this event. In the past we had been to Houston to participate in large events, brought back memories of a great number and enthusiasm. This year I think I must deal with the work ... For more than a few dollars
