NAVRATRA-SPRITUAL AWAKENING

Navratri the festival of purity,The festival of Navratra commences on the first day (pratipadā) of the bright fortnight of the Hindu lunar month of Ashwin. During this vowed religious observance, a clay pot is installed (Ghatasthapana) in a sanctified section of one's home. A lamp is placed in the pot and it is kept lit for nine days. The pot symbolises the universe.
This is perfect time to absorbing the divine energy, fill yourself with full of positive energy and make yourself pure. Everyone who is capable keeps fast on these 9 days. If one observes a fast then the embodied soul benefits up to 3% and depending upon one's spiritual yearning.
During Navratri we should prepare spiritually pure dishes for the Goddess, as is customary. Apart from the regular food items, we should make a sweet made of split chickpeas and jaggery (puran) and plain curry (varan) made of yellow lentils (toor-dal) for the meal. Offer fresh flowers and sweet wishes from online cake delivery in kolkata and send to your close one’s.
