The sixth form of the Goddess Parvati is Katyayani. Worshipped on the sixth day (Shashti), she happens to be the warrior Goddess. She was born in the house of sage Katya, hence she was named Katyayani. According to Hindu mythology, the form of the warrior Goddess was taken in order to kill the demon Mahishasura. The idol of Adishakti sits on a ferocious lion, and is represented with three eyes, and four hands. Her right hands can be seen in the Varada mudra and Abhaya mudra (representing the removal of fear). With the crescent moon adorning her forehead, two of her left hands carry a lotus and a sword. Devotees believe that worshipping Maa Katyayani helps in getting rid of their sins.

Navratri 2022 Day 6: Maa Katyayani Aarti

जय जय अम्बे जय कात्यानी
जय जगमाता जग की महारानी
बैजनाथ स्थान तुम्हारा
वहा वरदाती नाम पुकारा
कई नाम है कई धाम है
यह स्थान भी तो सुखधाम है
हर मंदिर में ज्योत तुम्हारी
कही योगेश्वरी महिमा न्यारी
हर जगह उत्सव होते रहते
हर मंदिर में भगत है कहते
कत्यानी रक्षक काया की
ग्रंथि काटे मोह माया की
झूठे मोह से छुडाने वाली
अपना नाम जपाने वाली
ब्रेह्स्पतिवार को पूजा करिए
ध्यान कात्यानी का धरिये
हर संकट को दूर करेगी
भंडारे भरपूर करेगी
जो भी माँ को 'चमन' पुकारे
कात्यानी सब कष्ट निवारे
