Food is piled up at Hindu temples as an offering to Krishna in the festival of Govardhan Puja.
Anakut Happy Diwali |
The mountain of food is symbolic of Govardhan Hill. In this traditional story, Krishna lifted the hill to shelter villagers from a flood caused by the vengeful Indra, King of Heaven. The same as Indra, Hindus learn to be humble in the face of the divine.
