Here the word 'Brahma' means penance and 'Brahmacharini' means - one who practices penance. A person who worships Goddess Brahmacharini gets victory in all his work. Maa Brahmacharini, wears white clothes, holds a chanting rosary in her right hand and a kamandal in her left hand. Worshiping her increases the power of chanting and penance inside the person. The Goddess also gives a message to her devotees that success can be achieved only through hard work.
