• About

1. Navratri Puja is mainly done to remember Maa Durga and her nine powers. According to the Puranas, when the atrocities of the demons increased due to the prayers of the gods, then Maa Durga took various forms and killed the evil ones.

   Chaitra Navratri is believed to be related to Ramayana. It is said that Lord Rama won by worshiping Maa Durga before killing Ravana.

   In Sharadiya Navratri, special worship of the Mahishasura Mardini form of Goddess Durga is done. This festival symbolizes that Dharma ultimately triumphs over Adharma.

   Thus, the purpose of Navratri Puja is to give the message that whenever injustice, unrighteousness, and negativity increase in the world, then only the remembrance and worship of Shakti Swaroopa Maa Durga gives the right direction to life.
