14 de Noviembre: "Sri Govardhana Hill"


Goverdhan Pooja/Annakuta Puja is celebrated to

commemorate the pastime of the Lord Krishna 

lifting the Govardhana Hill on His little

finger, in order to protect the residents of

Vrindavan from torrential rains sent by Indra. 

The Supreme Personality of Godhead performed 

this pastime as a seven year old boy in order 

to crush the pride of Indra, the Lord of the 

heavens. Lord Krishna forbade the residents of 

Vrindavana from worshipping Indra.  He induced 

them to worship Govardhana Hill instead.
