Govardhan Puja Shri Krishna Annakut Bhog & Govardhan Parvat Chadhava (56 Bhog)

🏔️✨The Grand Festival of Govardhan Puja - "Govardhano'smi!" When Kanha Himself Declared, "I Am Govardhan Hill!"
The moment the people of Braj first offered Annakoot to Giriraj Govardhan instead of Indra Dev is immortalised in the Tenth Canto of the Shrimad Bhagavata Purana. At that very moment, Shri Krishna assumed a विशाल divine form, appeared atop the mountain and declared, "Shailosmi!" "I Am This Mountain!" He then personally accepted the entire Annakoot offering. Since that day, Govardhan Hill has been revered as a divine manifestation of Shri Krishna Himself. Every food offering made here is believed to reach Kanha directly.
🏔️ Why Is This Seva Unique - Two Divine Forms, One Kanha?
First: Shri Sneh Bihari Banke Bihari Temple, Vrindavan
The divine idol of Thakur Ji is believed to have manifested from the sacred land of a Gaushala. This temple beautifully represents the divine connection between Gau Mata, Govardhan and Gopal. Offering Annakoot Bhog to Kanha in His divine idol form here is a way of lovingly serving Him in His beloved Vrindavan.
Second: Giriraj Govardhan Hill
The Bhagavata Purana declares that Giriraj is inseparable from Shri Krishna Himself. An offering made here is not merely presented to a symbolic representation, but to Kanha Himself, worshipped in the form of the sacred mountain whose divine presence continues to be revered today. Offering at both locations brings together the worship of Kanha in His two divine forms, making this a complete Krishna Seva.
🛕Make Offerings at Both Sacred Locations Together Through the Sri Mandir
Visiting both Shri Sneh Bihari Banke Bihari Temple in Vrindavan and Govardhan Hill on the same day to make offerings may not be possible for everyone. However, through the Sri Mandir app, you can arrange this complete Annakoot offering at both sacred locations in your name, from the comfort of your home. The authorised Vedic priests at each location will perform the offerings and Bhog according to the prescribed rituals. Video proof will be available within 24–48 hours.
🙏 On the morning after Diwali, during the sacred month of Kartik, offer your loving Annakoot Bhog to Giriraj, the very form of Shri Krishna who once declared, "I Am Govardhan" and personally accepted His devotees' offerings. This sacred opportunity comes only once a year.!
