Navratri 2020: Worship Maa Brahmacharini on 2nd day — Know significance, mantra
The auspicious event of Navratri, the 9 days of festivities to welcome Goddess Durga, begins on Saturday (October 17). Like a ray of hope, this Indian festivity is extra vital this time due to the beneficial planetary positions this yr. This yr, the festivities start on October 17 and finish on October 25.
The 9 days of Navratri are devoted to worship Goddess Durga or female energy, and is likely one of the most celebrated festivals in India. Maa Durga is worshipped in 9 varieties and every day is devoted to one in all her avatars.
The first evening of Navratri, i.e. October 17, 2020 was devoted to Shailputri, the daughter of the mountains.
Today, October 18, is the second day of Navratri and is devoted to Maa Brahmacharini, one other incarnation of Parvati.
In this kind, Goddess Parvati turned Sati, her single self. Brahmacharini is worshiped for emancipation or moksha and endowment of peace and prosperity.
Maa Brahmachairi wears white garments, holds a rosary in her proper hand and Kamandal, a water utensil in her left hand and symbolizes bliss and calm.
Blue is the colour code of today. Blue coloration depicts tranquility but sturdy vitality.
Since Maa Brahmacharini is ruled by Mangal, the controller of all fortunes, her devotees worship her on the second day of Navaratri to hunt her blessings for peace and advantage and prosperity.
You can chant this Mantra to pay ode to Goddess Brahmacharini:
दधाना करपद्माभ्यामक्षमालाकमण्डलू।
देवी प्रसीदतु मयि ब्रह्मचारिण्यनुत्तमा॥
Dadhana Karpadma abhyamaksh Mala kamandalu
Devi Prasidatu Mayi Brahmacharinya Nuttam
Here’s wishing every person a really Happy Navratri.
