Navratri 2022 Day 6: Worship Maa Katyayani; know Puja Vidhi, Mantra, Aarti and Stotr Path

Navratri 2022 Day 6: The sixth form of the Goddess Parvati is Katyayani. Also known as the fierce and warrior form of Goddess Parvati, she is known to have taken this form to kill the demon Mahishasura. She was born in the house of sage Katya, hence she was named Katyayani. 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. It is also said that she improves the marital lives of her devotees.

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
