Krishna was the 8th son of Devaki and Vasudeva. Based on spiritual details and astrological calculations the date of Krishna's birth, known as Janmashtami. It is celebrated in the August/September months, on the Ashtami of Krishna Paksh. People fast on this day,they spend the day immersed in Shri Krishna's glory by reading, reciting and singing his divine leela especially in the evening in Temples. At midnight, the Lord's birth hour, arti is performed. He is also installed in the form of 'Lalji' (child form) in a swing and devotionally offered many sumptuous food dishes. 'Makhan' (butter) is especially included.After arti, devotees jubilantly sing and hail kirtans extolling the Lord's incarnation:
"Nand gher anand bhayo, Jai Kanaiyalal ki ..
Hathi, ghoda, palkhi, jai Kanaiyalal ki …"
"Bawa Nand tane darbar, nobat vaage re lol …
Hari pragatya taaranhaar, nobat vaage re lol…"
