Overview
Govardhan Puja for families in Kedar Ghat
Govardhan Puja is celebrated on Kartik Shukla Pratipada, the day after Diwali. It remembers Lord Krishna lifting Govardhan Parvat on his little finger to shelter the people and cattle of Vraj from the rains sent by Indra.
Kedar Ghat is one of the most recognisable ghats in south Varanasi, with its distinctive painted steps and the Kedareshwar Shiva temple above it. The ghat is a popular place for a morning Ganga snan, and it is busy but less hectic than the central ghats.
वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥
Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.
