Celebrating the Power and Protection of Maa Kaalratri, 7th Day

 


Celebrating the Power and Protection of Maa Kaalratri on the 7th Day of Navratri #Navratri #MaaKaalratri

The seventh day of Navratri brings us face-to-face with the fierce and protective form of Maa Durga – Maa Kaalratri. Dressed in the vibrant hue of royal blue, devotees honor her immense power to destroy ignorance, negativity, and fear.

Seeking Blessings and Inner Strength

Worshipping Maa Kaalratri is believed to grant immense blessings. She liberates us from anxieties and worries, guiding us through life's darkest moments, both physically and mentally. On this auspicious day of Maha Saptami, a sacred meal (Bhog) is prepared and distributed amongst devotees in a beautifully decorated and illuminated setting.

Embracing the Symbolism

Maa Kaalratri, though often depicted as the most ferocious form of Durga, is also revered as the destroyer of demons and negative energies. Her dark complexion symbolizes the darkness of ignorance, which she dispels with the light of wisdom and truth.

Legends and Traditions

As legends tell us, Maa Kaalratri defeated the demons Chanda and Munda, establishing her dominion over the three universes. Devotees offer her jiggery or Prasad made from jiggery after performing the Shringar puja on Saptami night.

Celebrating with Fervor

This nine-day festival culminates in the worship of Maa Durga's nine divine incarnations. On the seventh day, devotees of Aadishakti (the primordial power) worship Maa Kaalratri.

Offering Our Gratitude

By worshipping Maa Kaalratri, we seek protection from negative energies, psychic attacks, and malevolent forces. She is a reminder that within us all lies the strength to overcome darkness and embrace the light.

Happy 7th Day of Navratri to all!
