Annakoot Puja Tradition
The day after Diwali, Govardhan Puja also known as Annakoot is celebrated. According to the Hindu calendar, this puja is performed on Kartik Shukla Pratipada. The tradition of this worship is associated with Shri Krishna. This worship, which has been going on since ancient times, is present in its strong form even today. Govardhan Puja involves making Annakoot and cow dung is used to make the figure of Govardhan. Govardhan Puja is considered incomplete without parikrama.
Annakoot Puja Significance
Although the enthusiasm of Annakoot worship is seen all over India, but in Mathura and its surrounding areas, this festival has a special significance. According to the legends, Lord Shri Krishna presented the specialty of worshiping Prakriti to everyone on this day and Lord Krishna defeated Indra on this day. According to the legend, Lord Indra got angry when Shri Krishna asked the people of Braj to worship Govardhan mountain and cows. After this Indra made such torrential rain in his anger that the life of the people of Braj became dangerous. Then Shri Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain with his little finger to protect the Brajwasis and the animals. Everyone took shelter under this mountain for seven days. This is the reason that during Govardhan Puja people make this mountain out of cow dung and circumambulate it seven times. After this, Bhog of Annakoot is offered.
