WISH YOU A HAPPY NAVARATRI

[Guest guest]

Hii all

 

 

When the Supreme Being begins to manifest Its Cosmic Energy,It s variously known

as Sakti, Devi or Divine Mother, Who assumes many forms according to the task to

be preformed by Her.She is know  as Durga, lakshmi or Sarawati in her

Destructive, protective, and knowledge giving roles respectively.These three

aspects of the Divine Mother are worshipped during Devi Navaratri (The Nine

Nights).

 

Durgs or the Destructive aspect of the Divine Mother is worshipped during the

first three nights. On the succeeding three knights,Her protective aspect of

lakshmi and on the last three nights,Her knowkedge aspect or Saraswati are

worshiped. The significance of this order is that first Durga destroys all the

evil propensities lurking in the minds of  Her devotees minds and finally

Saraswati bestows true knowledge to Her devotees.The tenth day known as vijaya

Dasami, commemorates the victory of knowledge over ignorance  of Goodness over

evil .On this day,also known as Ayudha pooja,young children are initiated into

learning and all devotees re-dedicate themselves to their chosen paths by

worshipping the tools(ayudha) of their respective livelihoods.

 

May The Divine Mother bless us all during this most auspicious season.

 

 

WISH YOU A VERY HAPPPY NAVARATRI

Namaste,

 

I am aware the lyrics to this song I am about to post is not directly based

on Indian folklore or the Sanatana Dharma in general, but I thought it

reminded me of the concept of Devi, and would wish to post it as we honor

this special time of the year. Happy Navaratri!

 

 

 

Jai Ma!

 

Sincerely,

Christina/Arya
