Not just Dwarka, all the 150 ISKCON temples across India — in Bengaluru, Delhi, West Bengal, and Odisha — are preparing to celebrate Janmashtami online.
“This Janmashtami from 7th to 12th August 2020, Delhi’s famous upcoming temple- ISKCON Dwarka Delhi invites you to join them at their temple in Sector-13 Dwarka. We have made an exclusive arrangement where you can perform their aartis, offer bhoga, do Abhishek. For this, we have prepared kits to help you in performing aarti & Abhishek from your home and we’ll get them delivered to you before the big day,” read ISKCON Dwarka’s statement.
“This year the grandeur has been lessened due to Covid-19. The entry will be purely based on limited invitation. We request all the devotees to stay with us virtually on this auspicious day,” Vrajendra Nandan Das, vice president of ISKCON, New Delhi told ANI
People who wish to attend will have to pre-book the appointment. The New-York founded religious organisation will make arrangements for people who want to prepare ‘bhoga’ for Lord Rukmini Dwarkadhish at their homes and offer it to the Hindu deity.
“You can offer dishes (without onion, garlic, mushroom), fruits, dry fruits, sweets, savories, etc,” ISKCON said.
Delhi’s ISKCON is allowing a limited number of people to come to the temple — while adhering to the government — and perform the sewa, by booking an appointment. However, unlike last year, Delhi’s ISKCON temple will not be decorated with flowers this time around.
