Shardiya Navratri starts on October 3.
Ayodhya’s astrologer Pandit Kalki Naam says that during Shardiya, Maa Durga remains on earth for nine days.
Sharadiya Navratri has special importance in Hinduism. Navratri is celebrated four times a year, including Sharadiya Navratri. During this time, nine forms of goddess Durga are worshipped for nine days. Devotees participate in various religious activities during Navratri, including special prayers, dances like Garba and Dandiya, and vibrant cultural performances. This year, Shardiya Navratri starts on October 3 and ends on October 11 on the day of Navami. At the same time, the festival of Vijayadashami will be celebrated on October 12.
During Sharadiya Navratri, many rules are also kept in mind. It is said that for nine days of Navratri, Goddess Durga stays with her devotees, and by worshipping her according to the rituals, one also receives her blessings. So, if you want Mata Rani to come to your house before Ghatasthapana, then for this, before Navratri, you will have to take out some things from your home, so let us take a look.
Take care of cleanliness:
Meanwhile, recently astrologer Pandit Kalki Naam of Ayodhya says that during Sharadiya, Maa Durga comes to earth for 9 days, and devotees of Maa Durga keep fast and do Puja-paath to please her in these 9 days. But during this time, special care should be taken of cleanliness. One should clean the house completely before the start of Navratri. Keep in mind that Mata Rani lives only in a clean place, and where she lives, there is prosperity. In the house where there is dirt, poverty starts increasing. Therefore, every corner of the house should be cleaned before Navratri.
Do these things before Ghatsthapana:
⦁ Clean the house completely before Navratri begins.
⦁ A positive atmosphere should be maintained in the house during Sharadiya Navratri.
⦁ If there is any broken idol or torn picture in the temple of the house, then remove it from the house. Broken idols make the atmosphere of the house negative. Along with this, Vastu defects are also created in the house.
⦁ Broken idols of gods and goddesses should be immersed in holy rivers.
⦁ Before Sharadiya Navratri, torn-old shoes, slippers, broken glass items, damaged watches etc. should be removed from the house.
⦁ Along with this, one should also remove torn old clothes from your house as all these things increase negativity.
