Celebrate Navaratri according to science of Spirituality

The Navaratri commences on the first day (pratipada) of the bright fortnight of the Hindu lunar month of Ashwin. During this vowed religious observance, a pot is installed (ghatasthapana) in a sanctified place at home. A lamp is kept lit in the pot for nine days. The pot symbolizes the universe. The uninterrupted lit lamp is the medium through which we worship the effulgent Adishakti, i.e. Sree Durgadevi. During Navaratri, the principle of Sree Durgadevi is more active in the atmosphere. When we understand the spiritual science behind the various rites that come under the worship of Sree Durgadevi, we become worthy of absorbing more of the Divine energy principle, thereby acquiring more of Her grace.

Navaratri: Night indicates 'switch over in the process'. one of the Goddess's names is Kalratri. Kalratri is one who brings about changes in the Kalpurush. Earth's basic nature is to rotate. Due to this rotation, changes like night and day occur. Vowed observances (vrat) help the body adjust to the changes. To reduce the tama gun, Goddess Mahakali is worshipped during the first 3 days of Navaratri. In the next 3 days Satvaguni Goddess Mahalaxmi is worshipped to increase the satva gun. And during the last 3 days of navaratri Rajoguni Goddess Maha Saraswati is worshipped to increase the intensity of our spiritual practice.
