Navratri is an auspicious occasion for Indians. Shardiya Navratri is a nine-day-long festival dedicated to Maa Durga and her nine manifestations. Shardiya Navratri is one of the most auspicious Hindu festivals celebrated with great pomp and enthusiasm across India. Check out the significance of colors for each day of the celebration. This year Shardiya Navratri will begin on October 15 and end on October 24 with Dussehra.
Our religious festivals and rituals are matchless in one or the other way. The most unique thing is they are based on logic and certain scientific backgrounds which are attributed to their origin.
They are beneficial to mankind for the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of life. Physical, mental, and spiritual growth are inseparable aspects of a blissful and pleasant life. This may be the founding stone for our rituals and festivals. It is the best example of the convergence of science and spirituality.
Navratri’ means ‘nine nights.’ ‘Nava’ means ‘nine,’ and ‘Ratri’ means ‘night.’
The night provides rest and rejuvenates us mentally and physically and after that, we turn inwards through sleep, and we wake up feeling refreshed and rested in the morning. In the same way, Navratri, the ‘nine nights’ is that time of the year when we get the chance to experience deep rest.
This deep rest brings freedom from all kinds of botherations, deep relaxation, and creativity. During Navratri, even the subtle energies in the environment enhance and assist one’s experience of reaching the spirit.
Prayer, chanting, and meditation are performed during Navratri and those connect us with our spiritual spirit. Getting in touch with the spirit invokes positive qualities within us and destroys negative energy like laziness, pride, obsession, cravings, and aversions. When stress in the form of negative emotions is destroyed, we experience the deep rest of the transforming nights.
