Happy Krishna Janmashtami to one and all! It is the beautiful night when Lord Krishna came in the human form on this planet Earth to stop the ugly side of his maternal uncle Kansa. Just after a week, will be Ganesh Chaturthi, the birth celebration of Lord Ganesha that will last for 10 days. Then we have the Navratri festival in October followed by Diwali in November and the year ends with the Christmas occasion.
Things you need to know about Mathura
Since it is the festive season for the coming four months with lots of color and vigor all around the country, we need to understand that these festivals will come again next year. But people who are losing their lives in this coronavirus pandemic will not be there next year if we continue to celebrate the festivals like the pre-pandemic era. Yes, the various state governments have imposed lockdown-like restrictions and many are also relaxing the curbs currently. But it is not for unnecessary travel and to increase the crowds in public places.
Let us follow Lord Krishna’s quotes this Janmashtami 2021
The first wave of the pandemic that occurred in 2020 was deadly, the second wave that came in 2021 was more deadly and extremely stressful for one and all. No sane man likes to hear and know the deaths of the people around them. Then why should we become careless now and lower our masks just to enjoy these upcoming festivals? Who gave us the right to play with the lives of people by being selfish and irresponsible?
Why is social distancing so difficult even if the cases are lowered in your city? Why are people not washing their hands regularly as sincere individuals who are working towards making the country free from the coronavirus pandemic? Think about these things deeply and then decide if celebrating festivals at home only in a limited way is a good idea or traveling to large group gatherings is important for you even in these challenging times?
