We all know the importance of Srimad Bhagwat Gita, a sacred guide to humanity which contains infinite number of invaluable guidance. The spiritual message that Lord Krishna gave to Arjuna in the battlefield of the great Mahabharata, the ultimate guiding light to humanity is so well noted in Srimad Bhagwat Gita.
Gita bhoomi Kurukshetra is world famous for the sacred guide Gita,that was narrated in this battle Mahabharata that took place long long years back. The International Geeta Mahotsav, as detailed in the video linked in this blog, is held every year in the Kurukshetra district of Haryana, India. It is organized with great pride and enthusiasm to celebrate the birth of Srimad Bhagwat Gita and to pay tribute to the holy Gita. Every year it is being organized mostly in the months of November or December, for around 15 to 18 days.
The festival, The Gita Jayanti is flooded and occupied with n number of beautiful and amazing handicrafts fair consisting of various herbal, handmade, chemical free, fresh, organic and natural products. Not only this, the festival also includes Gita reading, bhajan sandhya, aarti, cultural programs, social gatherings and more.
Since years Gita Jayanti is being celebrated in Kurukshetra and even other places to mark the birth of Srimad Bhagwat Gita, and has gained a lot of popularity in these years. Loads of people, including tourists gather here to attend the fair and the festival. The entire environment gets holy and its really a peaceful and a heavenly experience to attend the festival.
This year, in 2018, I got this opportunity to personally visit the holy Gita bhoomi Kurukshetra and attend the International Gita Mahotsav, I really loved the whole thing out there and my experience was simply amazing. It was truly a bliss to attend the fair and pay our small tribute to Gita.
International Gita Mahotsav is organized every year at the beautiful Brahman Sarovar, Kurukshetra in Haryana. It is celebrated to pay regards to Srimad Bhagwat Gita and is held mostly in the months of November or December every year. November or December is a cold month in North India, and it was really freezing cold out here in Kurukshetra during the fest. However, walking besides the beautifully lighted and decorated Brahmasarovar Lake and exploring the colorful and fascinating stalls in the fair was a different and an amazing experience. I would definitely love to come back to this fair in 2019 as well.
