We all know the famous story of Lord Krishna lifting the entire Mount Govardhan on his little finger, and that’s one of the most famous depictions of him in pichwai art.
Angry with the people of Braj for worshipping Mount Govardhan and not Lord Indra himself, Lord Indra showed his fury by letting thunderstorms and rain continue for several days; to save people from the wrath of Lord Indra, Lord Krishna picked up Mount Govardhan on his little finger and took everyone under his shelter, saving everyone. Soon, Lord Indra accepted his defeat, and the rain stopped.
Today, the festival of Govardhan Puja, or Annakoot, is celebrated to worship Lord Krishna to show gratitude and respect. Celebrated on the 4th day of Diwali, people offer a mountain of grains and food that symbolises Mount Govardhan to Lord Krishna’s idol. In a pichwai painting, Lord Krishna is always shown lifting Mount Govardhan while the people and cattle of Braj take shelter under his protection.
