Kartik Damodar Maas
The Month of Devotion and Light
The Month of Mercy
It is said that even a small act of devotion during Kartik is multiplied a thousandfold. Devotees take up extra vows of chanting, reading, and service to please Srimati Radharani and Krishna.
Damodarastakam Prayers
Every evening, devotees offer ghee lamps to Lord Damodar while singing the beautiful Damodarastakam prayers, commemorating the pastime of Mother Yashoda binding baby Krishna with the ropes of her love.
