INDIA-RELIGION-HINDU
Indian Hindu children dressed as Hindu gods Lord Shiva (L) and Lord Krishna (C) pose as they wait to take part in a procession during a pre-'Janmashtami' festival celebration in Amritsar on August 20, 2011. 'Janmashtami', the birth of Lord Krishna, will be celebrated this year on August 22. According to Indian mythology and the Hindu holy book Puranas, Krishna is the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, who took birth to kill his maternal uncle King Kansa and free the people of Mathura and other nearby towns from his cruelty.
