NAVARATRI 2011
The word Navaratri literally means nine nights in Sanskrit; Nava meaning
Nine and Ratri meaning night. During these nine nights and ten days, nine
forms of Shakti/Devi i.e. female divinity are worshipped. She is a form of
energy, a manifestation of the Divine itself.
Ganpati Homa
The rituals begin with an offering to Ganesha, the Lord of Auspiciousness.
Ganpati Homa is symbolic of removing the obstacles before initiating any new
venture.
Navgraha Homa
This is followed by Navgraha Homa,performed to propitiate Nine Planets,
which influence various spheres of life. It nullifies the negative impact
created by the Nav Grahas.
Vaastu Shanti Homa
It is scientifically accepted that the directions possess the powers to
affect our day today life. So the puja is offered to theVaastu Brahma by
performing the Vaastu Shanti Homa to subside the negative impact on the
surroundings.
Sudarshana Homa
Sudarshana Homa offered to Lord Narayana signifies the removal of ignorance
& illumination of a new life enriched with knowledge. The legend has it that
when the devotees are suffering from afflictions, the Lord Sudarshana
dispels his fierce form and protects the devotees.
Chandi Homa
The day of Ashtami, eight day marks the pinnacle of all homas of Navaratri.
The Chandi Homa is performed to remove any obstacles or blocks in growth -
both internally and externally.And no one wants to miss this puja in the
presence of Swami Sadhyojathah, with a sankalpa to bring,peace, prosperity,
success and strength to the entire mankind. By performing the Chandi homa,
the sufferings that are caused by hostile elements are eradicated.
Durgasaptashati
Durgasaptashati, 700 verses in praise of the goddess Durga, are chanted.
With the recitation of each verse, 108 offerings are made in the sacrificial
fire,invoking the goddess to bestow her grace. Chandi Homa is about
recognizing the Divinity in the whole of creation.
In brief, the nine nights are dedicated to thethree main goddesses of
Hinduism - Parvati, Lakshmi and Sarasvati.
Navaratri is a time for self-referral and gettingback to the source.
Navaratri is a festival for one to take the mind back to its source.
The seeker gets back to the true source through fasting, prayer,silence and
meditation. While fasting detoxifies the body, silence purifies thespeech
and brings rest to the chattering mind, and meditation takes one deepinto
one's own being.
The nine days of Navaratri are also an opportunityto rejoice in the three
primordial qualities that make up the universe. Though our life is governed
by the three gunas, we seldom recognize and reflect on them. The first three
days of Navaratri are attributed to tamo guna,the second three to rajo guna,
and the last three to sattva guna.Our consciousness sails through the tamo
and rajo, gunas and blossoms in the sattva guna of the last three days.
Whenever sattva dominatesin life, victory follows. The essence of this
knowledge is honoured bycelebrating the tenth day as Vijaydashmi.
