Celebration of Sri Krishna Janmashtami 2015

DANTAK family along with college lhotshampa students celebrated the Sri Krishna Janmashtami in DANTAK mandir near college, Kanglung on 5^th September 2015.

“Sri Krishna Janmashtami is a day of victory over evil. This event has been traced to be celebrated since thousand years as per Hindu intellectuals and wits” said Pandit Shree Motikhar Timsina. He added, “I am blessed to attend this ceremony as one of the most Joyous and pious occasions in my psyche”.

People believe that Krishna Janmashtami was started around 5242 years ago when the universe was brightened by Lord Krishna and brought peace to the creatures and all living beings.

“Krishna Janmashtami is one of the most celebrated festivals in Hindu. It usually celebrated round 12am because Lord Krishna was said to be born at 12am”, said Mr.Dhan Bahadur mandir coordinator Physical science 5^th semester.

According to Mrs. Mani Kumari Biswakarmi (Teacher at Dantak Primary School),”it was over whelming as Sri Krishna Janmashtami is celebrated in a grand unlike other year”. She added as a guest, we were received warmly and everything was organized systematically which I really appreciated”.

“It was as wonderful as I did not expect that sort of organization from Sherubtse students’ side in co-ordination with DANTAK.I think this sort of practice should be carried on in-order to preserve our culture and tradition. There was full co-operation among the students and DANTAK people. I would like to thank all the Sherubtse students who were actively engaged to make this occasion successful”, said Mr.T.N Dhital (lecture at Sherubtse college).

“It was over all a very interesting and enjoyable celebration that was coordinated by the students and DANTAK people together” said Mr.Mahendra Dhakal BPC engineer at Khangma, Kanglung.

“As usual, we clubbed ourselves into groups and started observing the day. We started at 5Am and ended at 2Am of next day.
