ISKCON conducted Damodara Pooja at Sri Durga School on 21-10-2022. Students got blessings from Lord Krishna. Damodar is a very auspicious month for worshipers of Lord Krishna or Vishnu. It normally falls within the month of October and November. During this month devotees worship Lord Krishna’s pastime of being bound with ropes of Love by Mother Yasoda.
It is mentioned in scriptures that one who offers ghee lamps to Lord Damodara in this auspicious month and sings the Damodara Ashtakam (8 verses glorifying the Lord) will get rid of his past sins and develop bhakti (devotion) to Lord Damodara.
Everyone, be it – man, women, young and old can offer the ghee lamps. Ghee lamp offerings can be made in the mornings or evenings.
