Kharghar/Panvel/Navi Mumbai: Residents of Kharghar joyfully chanted mantras in reverence of their beloved Lord Krishna, as they gathered together to pull the swing of their lord on Friday, 12th August, the last day of the Jhulan Yatra Utsav 2022, which was held from 8th to 12th August 2022, from 7.30pm to 9 pm, every evening.
The Jhulan Yatra Utsav commemorates the swing pastimes of Lord Krishna. Devotees become part of the divine transcendental pleasure, by pulling the swing, chanting the holy name of the lord.
During the last day of the Jhulan Yatra, hundreds of Krishna devotees from all around the city, engaged in Hari Nama Sankirtan, as their beloved deities were swung.
The swing itself was a delight to watch and hold on to, decorated with aromatic flowers, multi colored garlands and other paraphernalia.
As bands of ecstatic devotees gently pulled the swing, the sound of chanting echoed loud and clear, mesmerising all present.
After the Jhulan Yatra, devotees gathered again to enjoy the prasad and bhog, that was equally divine.
The event was attended by hundreds of devotees and also some prominent people who took time out from their busy schedules to participate in event.
