Krishna Puja
A loving devotional worship of Lord Krishna, the divine cowherd and Supreme Personality of Godhead. This puja emphasizes shringar (adornment), bhog (food offering), and the devotional relationship between the bhakta and the Lord. Perfect for Janmashtami, daily worship, or whenever the heart yearns for Krishna's grace.
