Nanda Mahotsava

About this text

The festival of Kṛṣṇa’s birth as Nanda held it in Vraja, and as Caitanya Mahāprabhu kept it at Jagannātha Purī: the devotees dressed as gopas and gopīs, carried pots of milk and yogurt, and splashed one another with milk, yogurt and turmeric water until the white cloth turned golden.
