Mysuru: The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), Jayanagar in city, is celebrating a month-long festival of lights called “Damodara Deepotsava” during the auspicious month of Karthika starting Oct. 5 (today).
This festival is being celebrated in commemoration of an enchanting childhood pastime of Lord Krishna who agreed to get bounded by the pure unalloyed love of Mother Yeshoda to a wooden grinder mortar. Devotees celebrate this sweet pastime throughout the month of Kartika by offering special prayers and lamps to Lord Damodara.
