For Durga



Piety marks 'Sharadiya Navaratra'

The Times of India: "The primeval force is worshipped in the form of nine plants (navapatrika) wrapped in a red sari. This is placed on an earthen pot, which is known as 'Kalash Sthapana', before commencing the 'path' of Durga Saptasati. Some devotees especially read the 'Sundarkand' as it is believed that Lord Ram killed Ravana on the conjunction of mahashtami and mahanavami - the Sandhikshan - and cremated on Vijaya Dashmi."

For the rest go to
