Shri Krishna, one of the most revered incarnations of Lord Vishnu, continues to deeply influence the spiritual and cultural heritage of India to this day. His advent has been a divine source of inspiration for people of every generation. To celebrate his divine incarnation, Divya Jyoti Jagrati Sansthan (DJJS), with holy inspiration of Divya Guru Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji (Founder & Head, DJJS), organized a grand event of Shri Krishna Janmashtami Mahotsav 2025 at Divya Dham Ashram, Delhi, on Saturday, 16th August 2025.
Thousands of devotees participated in this grand celebration to seek Shri Krishna's divine grace. The presence of several esteemed dignitaries, including Smt. Rekha Gupta Ji (Chief Minister, Delhi) Sh. Ashok Gupta Ji (Joint General Secretary, VHP), Sh. Mahabal Mishra Ji (Former Member of Parliament), Sh. Pawan Ji (MLA, Kharkhoda), Sh. Shyam Sharma Ji (MLA, Hari Nagar), Smt. Shikha Bhardwaj Ji (Municipal Councillor, MCD), Sh. Jagdish Yadav Ji (BJP) & Sh. Satya Narayan Gautam Ji (BJP), Smt. Shobha Vijender Gupta Ji (President, Sampurna NGO) and other distinguished guests, further enhanced the grandeur of the event.
The program commenced with the sacred chanting of Vedic mantras by the Brahm Gyani disciples of Divya Guru Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji, infusing the atmosphere with profound spiritual vibrations.
The distinctiveness of the program was beautifully showcased through enchanting dance ballet that held the audience spellbound. Each performance left a lasting impression on the hearts of the viewers, seamlessly blending digital technology, exquisite choreography, and meaningful, context-rich scripts inspired by the pivotal episodes from the life of Shri Krishna.
The preacher disciples of Divya Guru Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji systematically dismantled the misconceptions and false accusations surrounding Shri Krishna in today’s modern world, drawing upon logic, science and scriptural evidence. Each thought, presented through the divine inspiration of Gurudev, effortlessly revealed the profound wisdom inherent in Shri Krishna’s divine sports and illuminated their timeless relevance in the contemporary world. For instance, Raas Leela, often misinterpreted, is, in truth, a divine expression of pure and selfless love between the Supreme and the devotee. It represents the pinnacle of Bhakti Yoga, where complete surrender dissolves the ego and leads to spiritual union with the Divine. Similarly, the episode in which Shri Krishna left the battlefield and came to be known as 'Ranchhod' was also thoughtfully explained. Far from being an act of cowardice, it was a profound demonstration of compassion and strategic foresight. Having already defeated Jarasandha seventeen times, Shri Krishna chose to prioritize the safety of Mathura’s citizens by relocating them and establishing a secure haven in Dwarka, a decision rooted in wisdom, not retreat. In the Mahabharata, Shri Krishna upheld Dharma as a divine guide, leading humanity through the complexities of righteous living. His profound discourse to Arjuna enshrined in the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita continues to be one of the most revered spiritual scriptures of all time. The Gita conveys timeless teachings on duty, detachment, and selfless action. Just as Arjuna gained clarity through divine vision bestowed by a True Guru, we too, when blessed with such guidance, are empowered to make wise life choices and walk the path of true fulfilment.
From youth grappling with direction, to adults navigating responsibilities, and elders seeking spiritual fulfilment, Shri Krishna’s life serves as a beacon of guidance for all. His timeless teaching, “Perform your duties without attachment to the results”, continues to inspire purposeful living and inner peace. Today, countless disciples across the globe, initiated into Brahm Gyan by Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji, embody this profound wisdom in their daily lives.
The event was streamed live on DJJS’s official YouTube channel, drawing viewership from millions of devotees across India and around the world. The event also received widespread coverage in both print and electronic media. The program concluded on a note of profound spiritual inspiration and enthusiasm, as attendees pledged to imbibe Shri Krishna’s teachings in their lives and advance towards inner harmony and spiritual upliftment, indeed the true essence of human life.
