On this occasion, Shri Vishal Bawa told that being the king of Pushti Marg, he is given a bath with cold water. Its greatest importance is that when the Gopiyas sprinkle water on Shriji Prabhu for bathing, and with the same feeling of water play, Shriji’s Jyeshthabhishek bath is also done by sprinkling Tilakayat Shri Shankh on him, which provides cool pleasure to the entire Pushti creation! Along with this, he also told about planting mangoes in this month that being a seasonal fruit, 1.25 lakh mangoes are planted. So that people remain healthy. Let us tell you that 1.25 lakh mangoes are distributed to the devotees coming to all the gates of Shri Nath Ji’s Haveli.

What are the recognitions
It is believed that Lord Shri Krishna had done Jal Vihar in Brij with his devotees in the month of Jyeshtha. He had bathed in Yamunaji on Jyeshtha Purnima. During that time, praise of Shri Yamunaji’s feet and Jal Vihar Manorath was done. The wish was fulfilled by offering 1.25 lakh mangoes to the Lord as Udyaapan. This wish is fulfilled every year with this feeling. On the occasion of Shreeji Prabhu’s bathing yatra, many devotees including Shrinathji Temple official Sudhakar Upadhyay, Chief Administrator Bharat Bhushan Vyas, Assistant Officer Anil Sanadhya, Jamadar Harsh Sanadhya, Kailash Paliwal were also present.
