Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Good Day !!! The Nine Nights of Goddess, called Navaratri, is a powerful opportunity for those interested in both spiritual and material pursuits. It is a time for physical and mental rejuvenation and to tune in to creative energies that make themselves abundantly available during these nine nights. Celebrated with great devotion and happiness in the Vedic tradition, it represents a time of hope for humanity to realize happiness be it money, relationship or self- discovery and realization. The saying 'behind every successful man there is a woman' is very true. It is the feminine energy that is behind every creation as well as destruction. The feminine sustains this universe. By tuning into the creative energies during Navaratri, one can prosper and be happy. Of the nine days, three days are dedicated to each of the Goddesses, helping to tap into a specific, vibrant and creative life energy prevalent on those days. During the first three days Goddess Durga helps to annihilate fear or enemies both internal and external. She helps to dispel darkness in terms of evil tendencies from your life. The second set of three days is dedicated to the Goddess Lakshmi who symbolizes all that is connected to material abundance and prosperity. Goddess Saraswati provides true knowledge to those who pray to her sincerely. This true knowledge not only helps us in our academic and intellectual pursuits but also the true purpose of human life and how to move ones consciousness from form-based existence to the infinite, formless. September 30th – Navratri, Festival of Nine Nights begin. October 5th – Durga Puja Begins - Durga Sashti puja. October 6th, 2008 – Maha Saptami Puja/ Saraswati Avahan Puja in some parts in North India October 7th – Durga Ashtami Puja. October 8th, 2008 – Navratri Ends. Mahanavami Puja/ Saraswathi Puja and Ayudha Pooja in South India October 9th – Vijaya Dashami and Dusshera Please note that the dates are based on Indian Standard Time. Some calendars are indicating that Navratri festival in United States and Canada begins on September 29. The rest of the dates are indicated as same as in India.
