“… Krishna assumed a great transcendental form and declared to the inhabitants of Vrindavan that He was Himself Govardhana Hill in order to convince the devotees that Govardhana Hill and Krishna Himself are identical. Then Krishna began to eat all the food offered there….” Krishna Book, Page 249

Devotee can bring offerings for the Govardhan Hill by 6:45 pm. Krishna likes Sandesh, Simply Wonderfuls, Cookies, Laddus, Burfi, Fruit, Rasagulla, Rasa Malai, Samosas, Pakoras, Kachoris, etc., but they should be made by devotees and not be purchased.

Please ensure that all the ingredients that you use to make preparations do not contain eggs, chocolate, meat products (incl. gelatin), garlic, or onions. Please make sure you prepare the items under clean conditions, so they are worthy of being offered to Lord Krishna. Everything should be made with love and devotion to Krishna.
