    Hi all,

    every year Krishna Jayanthi is celebrated twice or thrice in a year.

    different group of people celebrate it on different dates, like temples celebrate it on different days and @ home we celebrate it on someother day.

    Iyers celebrate on different date and iyengar's celebrate it on different date..
    different groups of Iyengar's also celebrate in different dates..

    my queries are:
    1. why so many days of celebration for birthday?(usually we celebrate 2 b'day for us one is date other is and star, but for krishna how it is?)

    2. why it was celebrated yesterday, where there was no ROHINI, no ASTAMI, and no AAVANI..?

    Thanks in Advance.. :)
