Janmashtami 2023 Date in India, wishes, Puja Vidhi.

Janmashtami 2023 Date in India:- This year, much like Rakshabandhan, there appears to be a bit of confusion surrounding the exact date of Janmashtami. Some calendars mark Janmashtami on 6th September, while others indicate the date as 7th September. In this perplexing situation, many people are left wondering which day they should celebrate Janmashtami and when to observe the fast and Parana. Let’s turn to Dr. Ganesh Mishra, an esteemed astrologer from Central Sanskrit University in Puri, to unveil the correct date of Janmashtami.

Janmashtami 2023 date in India.

In Hinduism, the grand festival of Shri Krishna Janmashtami is celebrated with great enthusiasm. It is a cherished belief that Shri Krishna represents the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu, and this auspicious day is dedicated to the worship of Lord Krishna. Hence, it’s imperative to determine whether this significant festival will be observed on the 6th or 7th of September. Janmashtami celebrated as Shri Krishna’s birthday in 2023, is an annual event eagerly awaited and will be joyfully celebrated this year on the dates of 6th and 7th September 2023.

Janmashtami 2023 in Bihar.

According to Jyotishacharya Mishra, Janmashtami is traditionally celebrated in Mathura on the Ashtami (eighth day) of Krishna Paksha during the Bhadrapad month, specifically at midnight. Therefore, in the year 2023, it is indeed appropriate to celebrate Janmashtami on 6th September, which falls on a Wednesday. It’s worth noting that Janmashtami is celebrated in two primary ways: Smarta and Vaishnava Janmashtami.

How is Janmashtami fasting determined?

For Janmashtami, it’s crucial that the Ashtami Tithi (eighth day) aligns with midnight and features Rohini Nakshatra (star) on the first day, as is the case this year. Consequently, Janmashtami is observed on the first day. In 2023, the Bhadrapada Krishna Ashtami Tithi spans from 03:37 PM on September 6 to 04:14 PM on September 7, while Rohini Nakshatra occurs from 09:20 AM on September 6 to 10:25 AM on September 7.

This means that on 6th September, Ashtami Tithi coincides with Rohini Nakshatra during midnight, whereas on the following day, Ashtami does not fall during midnight with Rohini Nakshatra. Hence, it is most fitting to celebrate Janmashtami on 6th September.

Smart and Vaishnav Janmashtami.

There are two predominant approaches to celebrating Janmashtami: Smarta Janmashtami, intended for householders, and Vaishnava Janmashtami, observed by sages and ascetics. In 2023, Vaishnav Janmashtami falls on 7th September. Vaishnavs traditionally celebrate Janmashtami on Ashtami Tithi alongside Navami, with Rohini Nakshatra being of lesser significance in this context.

गोपाल सहारा तेरा है,
नंदलाल सहारा तेरा है,
तूमेरा हैमैंतेरा हूं,
मेरा और सहारा कोई नहीं,

तूगाय चरानेवाला है।

कि आपको याद करूं और दर्शन हो जाएं।।एं
