In the eastern and Northeastern states, Navaratri is celebrated to mark the victory of Devi over the Asura (Demon) to restore Dharma. However, the significance of the festival in the western and northern states holds for Ram Lila. The tenth day, is celebrated as the Dusshera during which Rama won victory over the demon king, Ravana. However, for the south, the victory of different Goddesses over evil is celebrated. Thus, the main significant theme of Navaratri remains to be victory of good over bad.

The Nine Days of Navaratri

The myth of Navaratri holds a lot of significance for the farmers. Due to this, the farmers choose to bestow their gratitude towards the Maa Durga and asks for her blessings. The first three days of Navaratri are dedicated to the three different forms of Maa Durga, Kumari, Parvati and Kali. The devotees from various places come together to enjoy the piousness and grant their offerings to the Goddess. People celebrate the festival by wearing colourful dresses.

Navaratri ends with the coming in of Dussehra which requires fasting, and relishing on the various delicacies. On the last day, the Kanya Puja is done in which nine females are worshipped considering them to be the form of Maa Durga. As per the ritual, the feet of the girls are washed and they are gifted new clothes.

The historical or mythological significance of this was Lord Shiva gave permission to Goddess Durga to see her mother only for nine days. However, in these nine days, Goddess Durga defeated the demon, Mahishasura. Thus, Goddess Durga is a presentation of Shakti. Maa Durga’s eternal divine power is celebrated which can never be created nor be destroyed.
