How Navarati Festival In India Can Keep You Out of Trouble
At this time
the festival of Navratri is going on, let us know about the mythological significance of Navratri. According to mythology, there was a demon named Mahishasure. He had pleased Agnidev by doing great penance and received such a blessing from him that he could not die with the weapon of any human being. He defeated all his gods and also destroyed the ashrams of all the sages and then he also decided to conquer Vishnulok and Kailas. When they heard this, they all panicked and went to Lord Shiva. Shivaji told everyone to worship Goddess Shakti and told them that only Goddess Shakti can save you from this trouble. Then all the gods worshiped Goddess Shakti and made her happy. . And destroyed it on the tenth day hence the goddess Shakti is also known as Mahisasur Mardini. Then all the gods and the three people celebrated the festival which we still celebrate as Dussehra. Apart from this, another legend is also connected with Navratri before Lord Rama went out to fight Ravana he worshiped the goddess Shakti and got an arrow from her. And then he fought them continuously for nine days and killed Ravan in battle on the tenth day. And it is in his happiness that people celebrate Vidyalakshmi and people have maintained this tradition even today. And even today we make a statue of Ravana and burn it. Today, years later, we celebrate Navratri and Vijayadashami with the same fervor and enthusiasm. The nine days that Mataji fought with Mahisasur are known as Navratri. And during these nine days, Mataji is worshiped and Mataji's Garba is also played with great joy. It is said that worshiping Maa Shakti during Navratri brings immense power. That is why many people also fast for nine days during Navratri and get her grace by worshiping Maa Amba. On the eighth day of Navratri, very big yagnas are performed on this day. The importance of this day is considered very much. Gradually Navratri Navratri still takes place in some places, whether it is in the streets or in the middle of the village square. But now this Garba has been replaced by a party plot.
