Tips to delight Goddess Durga, recognize the entire Do’s and Don’ts

Before performing Navratri Puja, one must always know what sacred things and what are not.

Navaratri means nine nights in Sanskrit, Nava means nine, and Ratri means nights. During these nine nights and ten days, nine forms of Shakti / Devi are worshipped. Navratri is celebrated across various parts of India for nine nights and ten days. The Navratri festivities begin on October. The story behind the celebration of Navratri originates from the Hindu perspective of good triumphing over evil, i.e., of brass Durga idol defeating the asura Mahishasura to claim her rightful place in the hearts of selfless worshippers.

To please our deity with all that we have and all that we can, we might offer a few unconsecrated things and might end up spreading inauspiciousness around. Therefore, one must always know that are the things that are sacred and what are not before performing Navratri Puja.

Tips to please Goddess Durga this Navratri (The Do’s and Don’ts)

• Wake up in the morning and chant the following Durga Gayatri Mantra along with the proper procedure: “Om Giri Jaye viddhhe Shiv priye dhimahi Tanno Durge prchodayat.”

• On Navami, wake up early in the morning and worship Goddess Durga and the proper procedure before Durga idol, after taking a bath. Then offer kumkum, sandalwood paste, red cloth, beetle nut, hibiscus flower, Kaleva and fruits. After this, take a svatik rosary and chant the above-given mantra atleast 108 times.

• Do not lie or use unkind words on others as it spews ill effects and creates a circle of negativity around you.

• Chanting the mantras with a foul-smelling mouth is considered inauspicious too. The hair also must be washed. Offering puja with unclean hair and foul-smelling mouth makes the offering unsuccessful.

• Do not dirty your home, especially your puja room. Keep it dirt-free and cleansed to reflect positive energy.

• Offer home-made naivedyam or milk and sweets to Goddess.

• Do not study on the 9th day. On the contrary, keep your books, pens, pencil and other tools of education near Goddess Saraswati so that you can get her blessings.

One of the numerous names given to Durga Mata Murti is Durgatinashini. The one who kills the impaired driving of somebody. I love this name because it simply because it sounds like a panacea to all the problems that can trouble humans.
