Why is a lamp lit on the navel of Govardhan Maharaj?
According to religious beliefs, Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain on his finger to shatter Indra’s ego. When the people of Braj did not worship Indra on the advice of Lord Krishna, Indra started raining heavily. Flood-like conditions arose in the Braj region. After this, to protect the people, Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain on his little finger. After this, Indra’s pride was shattered and he apologized to Lord Krishna. It is said that Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhan mountain on his finger from the middle part.
After lifting the mountain, the people of Braj saw redness on Krishna’s finger, so they started applying butter, ghee, honey, oil, etc. Since Lord Krishna lifted Govardhan Maharaj from the middle part and the middle part is the navel in the body. Therefore, lighting a lamp in the navel of Giriraj on the day of Govardhan Puja and offering oil, honey, etc. there is considered very auspicious. According to beliefs, applying oil, honey, butter, etc. on the navel of Giriraj on the day of Govardhan Puja does not cause a shortage of wealth and grains in the house.
