Krishna Janmashtami Vrat Tips – What to do & How?
Determine the Type of Fast:
- There are different levels of fasting you can choose from, depending on your personal preference and physical ability.
- A complete fast involves abstaining from all food and water for the entire day until midnight when Lord Krishna is believed to have been born. This is the most rigorous form of fasting.
- Partial fasting allows for the consumption of certain foods and drinks. Devotees can have water, milk, fruits, and nuts during the day but avoid grains, lentils, and non-vegetarian food.
Prepare in Advance:
- Plan your fast in advance and make sure you have all the necessary items at home.
- Stock up on fruits, milk, nuts, and any other permitted foods you plan to consume during the fast.
Set an Intention:
- Before you begin your fast, set a clear intention for the day. Focus on your devotion to Lord Krishna and the purpose of your fast.
What to eat & what not to eat:
- Abstain from Grains and Non-Vegetarian Food
- During the fast, avoid consuming grains, lentils, and non-vegetarian foods.
- Stick to light, sattvic (pure) foods that are easily digestible.
- Consume Fruits and Milk
- If you are observing a complete fast without water, make sure to keep yourself well-hydrated before and after the fast. After breaking the fast at midnight, you can drink water to replenish your body.
Many people choose to break their fast at midnight, the time believed to be Lord Krishna’s birth. You can have a simple meal of fruits and milk at that time. Some devotees may choose to break the fast later in the morning after performing their morning prayers.
When it’s time to break your fast, do so gradually and mindfully. Start with a small amount of milk or fruits to avoid overeating.
Engage in Spiritual Activities:
- Throughout the day, engage in spiritual activities such as chanting of bhajans (devotional songs), reading sacred texts like the Bhagavad Gita or Srimad Bhagavatam, and meditating on Lord Krishna.
- Visit a Krishna temple, if possible, and participate in special Janmashtami celebrations.
Remember to keep your thoughts and actions pure and pious. Avoid negative or worldly distractions. Reflect on the teachings of Lord Krishna and try to embody his virtues of love, compassion, and devotion.
After breaking the fast, offer prayers and seek the blessings of Lord Krishna for a prosperous and spiritually fulfilling life.
