The most important festival at the Dwarkadhish Temple is Janamashtami, the day of Lord Krishna’s birth. Like in Mathura where he was born, this is a day and night celebration with the rituals reaching a crescendo at midnight, the time of his birth. The temple also has a daily schedule of pujas, aarti and darshan when devotees can watch the rituals in the garbha griha.
The religious rituals of the temple were established by the Vaishanava saints Ramanujacharya and Madhavacharya. So the temple follows the ritual guidelines of the Pushti Marga system of worship. There are daily aartis with the playing of drums, cymbals and bells as people sing out the lord’s praises. Read More: About Pujas & Festivals at Dwarka
