Meaning of Durga navaratris

 

 

 

Jai guru datta!

 

I thought everybody might be interested in meaning of Durga navaratris as

below:

 

Of the nine days, we worship Goddess Durga for 3 days. "Durge - Durgati

naashini" - The one who prevents us from straying into wrong path (durgati) and

also the one who removes obstacles on the right path.

 

Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped for three days. "Lakshmi - The one who takes us

to a Lakshya (goal)" Lakshmi guides us on the path of righteousness towards

our Lakshya .

 

Goddess Saraswati is worshipped for three days. "Saraswati - Sa Rasa wati" -

The one who provides the rasa - the energy to achieve this.

 

Thus in this navaratri, we are guided on the path of righteousness towards

our goal . The tenth day is "Vijayadashami"- The day on which we celebrate the

achievement of the goal..

 

 

 

Sri gurudatta !!
