==History==
This festival was started by Tulsi in the 16th century at Tulsi Ghat. The legend of Nag Nathaiya festival can be traced back to the time of Mahabharata. According to an episode of Mahabharata, one day Lord Krishna while playing with his friends lost his ball in the river. When all began asking for the ball little Krishna dived into the river to fetch it back. He dived down deep inside the river. There he was confronted by the poisonous King Cobra, Kaliya. He was feared by the villagers for the terror he spread in the village. The battle went for long but soon Kaliya Nag recognized the strength and power of Lord Krishna. He bowed his head in front of the Lord and promised not to hurt the villagers residing in the village. The snake lifted Lord Krishna on its head and took him to the surface. On the other hand Krishna`s friends became worried as it had been a long time that he went down in the river. Thus the friends were delighted upon seeing him back. It is said that Lord Krishna not only defeated the cobra but also purified the water and the air of the poison that was spread by the nag. The entire episode has since been known as `Krishna Lila` or Krishna`s magical charm.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://srimadbhagavatam.com/10/16/en )〕
