Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Reminder from the Calendar of /cal NAVARATRI Saturday September 23, 2006 All Day (This event repeats every day, until Sunday October 1, 2006.) (The next reminder for this event will be sent in 1 day, 23 hours, 33 minutes.) Notes: Navaratri (lit. "Nine Nights") is celebrated throughout India during the first 9 days of the bright half of the month of Aashwayuja in the Hindu calendar. Navaratri is dedicated to the worship of Saraswati (Goddess of learning and speech), Lakshmi (Goddess of wealth and prosperity), and Durga (Goddess of strength and courage). It also commemmorates the battle between Goddess Chamundeshwari and the demon Mahishaasura (as told in the Devi Mahatmya/Durga Saptasati/Chandi). The battle lasted nine days and nine nights. Finally, on the tenth day, Chamundeshwari killed Mahishaasura.
