Why is Chhapan Bhog offered to Krishna

IndiaTimes Thursday, 22 August 2024
Krishna Janmashtami, celebrating Lord Krishna's birth, is on 26-27 August 2024. Devotees fast all day, concluding the fast at midnight by offering Chappan Bhog—56 sattvic dishes—to Lord Krishna. This ritual originates from Krishna’s act of lifting Govardhan Mountain for seven days to shield Braj’s people from a storm caused by Indra.
