The Phool Bangla celebration is very interesting and important to know for all Krishna devotees. This festival is held in Banke Bihari Temple of Vrindavan from Chaitra Shukla Ekadasi up to Haryali Amavasya (Shravan Amavasya) according to Hindu calendar.
On this auspicious day, the Banke Bihari Temple along with Nidhivan is attractively decorated with summer flowers by thousands of Lord Krishna’s devotees. The main reason behind this festival is to protect Shri Banke Bihari from scorching summer’s high temperature. The main attraction along with all decoration is that cloths and ornaments of deity are also made by using flowers and leaves only. The ritual of Panchamrit abhishek (ceremonial bathing with cow dung, milk, curd, honey and water) is also done at Nidhivan in the morning.
Devotees throng Nidhivan as well as the Banke Bihari Temple in mass to offer prayers and to seek Lord's divine blessings even in burning summer.
