Janamashtami is not just a festival to remain awake till midnight, sing Aarti of Lord Krishna and break the fast. This is a very special day for performing sadhanas which can be used to remove all the scarcities of life!
Essence of Lord Krishna has remained as important as it was some five thousand years ago. His beauty, virtues, accomplished tasks etc. can’t be explained in few words. If we go to some place to listen to the preaching of any saint, they mostly teach that to attain completeness, to attain the state of Neti-Neti, one has to live an ascetic’s life. They preach that this world is just an illusion. However, if we ask them if they worship Lord Krishna, if they consider Him as a God, if they consider Him as Brahma, then the same Krishna never lived an ascetic’s life. He always followed the path of Karma, He lived His life in full joy and prosperity yet He is called as Yogeshwar.
The biggest yogi in this world is none other than a householder as he continuously walks on his path holding all the worldly ties together, still involved in the Sadhanas and worshiping Gods. One who has understood Lord Krishna, one who has been able to assimilate the knowledge of Gita, for sure, the person has become a yogi in life. At the end of Gita, it is mentioned that where there is Lord Krishna, where there is Arjuna carrying out the Karmas, there exists Yogeshwar Shri Krishna, there exists victory, there exists prosperity and virtues.
Lord Krishna is not just someone who should be understood via Bhakti Marg. He is the epitome of power, ethics, virtues, prosperity and one can understand Lord Krishna properly only if he can understand all His traits. Lord Krishna gave us the preaching that one doesn’t need to be an ideal of virtues and moralities, but our behavior should be tough towards the bad people and should be lovable towards the virtuous people. He was the one who laid down the foundation of politics of the modern world.
He was born at midnight when there was utter darkness, this was an indication that when there is utter darkness, a divine light will soon appear. There is a limit to pain and sufferings too and Lord Krishna’s incarnation day comes every year with this message. This day is highly suitable to perform various Shastrokt, Tantrokt and Mantrokt Sadhanas and Sadhaks must take full advantage of this auspicious time.
Gautamiya Tantra, Sharda Tilak and Kram Deepika are very special texts related to Lord Krishna Sadhanas. Gautamiya Tantra mentions that one can attain both prosperity and nirvana by performing Sadhana of Lord Krishna with full dedication. Provided below are four Sadhanas related to Lord Krishna which touches four different aspects of human life. Some Sadhaks perform all the four Sadhanas of Lord Krishna in a single night and some perform the one which can fulfill their most desired aspect of life. However, it is a fact that any Sadhana of Lord Krishna doesn’t go in vain.

Now the Shakti Vigrahas should be placed around the Yantra – they are the eight powers of Lord Krishna namely Lakshmi, Saraswati, Rati, Preeti, Kirti, Kanti, Tushti and Pushti. Chant the below mantra and place one Shakti Vigraha around the yantra starting from the right side, then right and bottom corner, then at bottom and so on.
