Navratri, the vibrant nine-night festival dedicated to Goddess Maa Durga and her nine divine forms, begins on September 22, 2025, and concludes with Vijayadashami on October 2. This auspicious period symbolises the victory of good over evil and invites devotees worldwide to celebrate with devotion, dance, and prayer.
(Om Aim Hreem Kleem Chamundaye Vichche)
This powerful mantra invokes Goddess Maa Durga’s energy and protection.
(Yaa Devi Sarvabhutaanam Maa Swaroopena Samsthitaa। Namastasyai Namastasyai Namastasyai Namo Namah॥)
A reverential chant honoring the universal form of the Goddess.
(Durga Sumukha Bhava Meri Sharana Tumhari)
A heartfelt prayer seeking refuge in the benevolent form of Durga.
(Shubham Navaratri Parvani Te Astu Sada, Matuḥ Kripa Bhavatu Nirantrada. Shuddham Manah, Dharmamayah Jeevanah, Sarve Bhavantu Sada Sukhinah.)
May the auspicious Navratri festival always be favorable to you; may the blessing of the Divine Mother be continuous; may your mind be pure, your life righteous, and may everyone be forever happy.
(Yaa Devi Sarvabhutaanam Maa Swaroopena Samsthitaa. Namastasyai Namastasyai Namastasyai Namo Namah.)
Salutations to the Goddess who resides in all beings and forms the source of all existence.
(Dehi Saubhagyam Arogyaṃ Dehi Me Paramam Sukham.)
O Divine Mother, grant me good fortune, health, and supreme happiness.
Each of the nine nights, or Navratri, honours one of the Navadurgas — Maa Shailputri, Brahmacharini, Chandraghanta, Kushmanda, Skandamata, Katyayani, Kalaratri, Mahagauri, and Siddhidatri. Devotees observe fasting, perform prayers, and partake in cultural festivities like Garba and Dandiya dances. The festival is not only a spiritual awakening but also a celebration of culture, unity, and resilience.
As the devotees chant mantras and light diyas, a deep connection to ancient traditions and cosmic energies is renewed. Navratri instills hope, courage, and the strength to face life’s challenges, reminding all that good always triumphs over evil.
