Jal Jhulni Dol Gyaras Utsav
, Jal Jhulni Dol Gyaras Utsav holds a special place in the hearts of devotees. Celebrated with deep devotion, music, rituals, and colorful processions, this festival beautifully reflects the spiritual and cultural traditions associated with Lord Krishna.
The Ekadashi that falls after the celebration of Shri Krishna Janmashtami is known as Dol Gyaras. According to tradition, on the eighteenth day after Lord Krishna’s birth, Mother Yashoda performed Jal Puja (Ghat Puja) for child Krishna. This sacred ritual of water worship became the foundation of the festival now celebrated as Dol Gyaras.
