In 2017, the Shardiya Navratra poojan is beginning
on 21st September 2017, Pratipada of Ashwin Shukla Paksha and will continue
till 29th September 2017. There is Hast Nakshatra, Shukla Yoga,
on this day. This day holds great importance for the devotees of Mata Sharda.
Observing Navratra fast for nine days with all the rituals blesses the person
with virtue.
The nine nights of Navratri are divided into 3 sets
of 3 nights. The first three nights are dedicated to Maa Durga, the next three
nights are dedicated to Maa Lakshmi and the rest three nights are for Maa
Saraswati. The following 10th day is celebrated as Vijayadashmi for the victory
of good over evil.
Durga is Durgati Harini, which means that
she has the tendency to remove all evils. By worshiping Maa Durga, her devotees
are also able to remove all the evil qualities from them such as laziness, ignorance,
and anger. She helps her devotees in gaining noble virtues.
Maa Lakshmi is the symbol of purity,
prosperity, and wealth. Not only material wealth, but also spiritual wealth is
equally important. The purification of mind can be obtained by worshiping Maa
Lakshmi.
Maa Saraswati symbolises knowledge. She is
the Goddess of supreme knowledge i.e. knowledge of the self. This knowledge
lightens up the soul and helps in making better individuals.
These nine nights are a process of removing all
evils from within, purifying the soul, and then gaining the supreme knowledge
of oneself for the betterment of an individual.
Navratri ka tyohar
aapke jiwan me khushiya aur samriddhi laye. Shubh Navratri!
